Deemi

Singer/songwriter Tahu "Deemi" Aponte, 27, doesn't need special effects to lure listeners in - instead, she relies on truth, drawing from her own remarkable life experience to pen vividly descriptive, emotionally charged lyrics. With her soaring, visceral vocals, Deemi makes songs weep with anguish, shiver with anticipation, throb with anger, and glimmer with hope. Every song is a confessional, a page torn from her diary - and together they form her extraordinary debut album, Soundtrack Of My Life (Family Ties/Atlantic).
