Indie Music Women’s Artist of the Day is…
Toccara (@iamtoccara_t)
Toccara is an emerging urban contemporary gospel singer/songwriter originating from Texas. As a faithful and devoted member of her local family church, she has served as both Choir Director and Worship Leader. She has shared the stage with other local Christian artists with a mutual desire to encourage others towards joy in hopes to build and maintain their faith.
With the release of her latest project “Tidal Wave,” she expands on captivating the hearts and minds of those in desperate need of hope. Through her faith and perseverance, Toccara is on a path to continue to make inspirational music that will grace the ears of Christian, R&B, and Soul aficionados.
Toccara shared with me what it means to her personally to be an indie music woman artist:
“An indie artist is someone who is a strong, independent go-getter who doesn’t throw in the towel when things get too difficult. They are motivated to work hard until they see results. By results, I mean success. An indie music woman artist in this case definitely fits that description to the “T.” Women who feel empowered to create and make music independently despite the odds. Odds against being a “woman”, or against the music industry in general because nothing is guaranteed and it’s a “dog eat dog” world out there. In summary, I would basically describe them as the engine that drives their business.. “business” being themselves.”
You can hear Toccara’s latest single, “Tidal Wave” on the Indie Music Women Spotify Playlist.
