Tarius(evolution)
Tarius is rapidly turning heads with his hip and captivating club tracks. His smooth, romantic voice sets him apart from the average ballad vocalist. The rising star adds his own style to the R&B flava/ Pop/ Hip Hop category. The Philadelphia born singer, writer and producer is musically self controlled, allowing him to stay far ahead of the competition.
Tarius has perfected the craft of entertainer by dazzling audiences everywhere, and winning numerous talent competitions. This solo artist has worked hard at becoming a perfectionist after working with different singing groups.
Seeing is believing, and hearing his silky smooth voice is like satin to the touch.
