Introducing...Teraj
Serenaded and inspired by the Lady of Song, Ella Fitzgerald, touched by the soul of Donny Hathaway, amazed by the liberation and embolden bravery of James Brown and Michael Jackson, and heartbroken by the death of his idol Aaliyah, Teraj, the voice was born. Teraj (pronounced te-räzh', -räj') possesses unbelievable and unrestrained passion in the delivery of his songs, but do not be mislead, he is like a sip of fine wine. He immediately grips one’s attention upon the first lyric carried by his 4 octave voice. His experiences in life and dreams write his songs, something that he deems a gift from God. Sometimes, a simple melody or a few sparse lyrics will linger in his mind after awaking from a dream, as the conception of a song entitled “Cold” came about. With influences from all over the world, one may notice the diversity in his vocal approach, a voice so familiar, yet, so peculiar and fresh. Blessed with the gift of song since a child, Teraj never exposed his talent to his family in fear that they wouldn't approve of music over his pursuits in architecture. During the summer of 2001, when Teraj had the privilege, in front of hundreds, to perform the Kenoly Brother's "My Quiet Place" in honor of Grammy Award Recipient, Oliver Wells, his family and friends could not believe their ears. After witnessing a standing ovation for Teraj's defining performance, they knew that his voice would be loved by the world over. From that day on, Teraj embraced his calling and has graced the stages of Miami, New York City, Los Angeles, Dublin, Paris, Rome, and not to forget, the stages of his soon to be Alma Mater in 2009, Cornell University. He currently has an international fan base comprised of more than 10,000 fans. Teraj is a multi-talented singer, songwriter, dancer, and actor working hard towards the completion of his first LP. Representing Miami, his homebase, with pride, Teraj is ready to become R&B and Pop's next sensation and take the world by storm!
