A veteran performer who began singing back-up vocals for her older sister, Toni, at the age of 12, Tamar Braxton was also a founding member of R&B group The Braxtons with Toni and their siblings Traci, Towanda and Trina. Fanning the flames of her musical vision was a backstage encounter with Whitney Houston when she was singing background vocals for her sister Toni. "Whitney said to me: 'Your voice is amazing! You're going to be a star,'" recalled Braxton. Last month she released her latest solo single, Catfish, along with the album 'Calling all Lovers'. A further single, Angels & Demons, has just been released and this month The Braxtons, including Toni, Tamar, Traci, Trina and Townada, are releasing new material entitled Braxton Family Christmas.
