Rhodes is a truth-teller and her songs grapple with and embrace themes of grief, love, and breaking free.

2019 was Rhodes’ debut year as a solo artist with the release of her first single ‘Her Eyes.’ Since then, she has released two more singles and frequents stages in and around Seattle with her full band of drums, bass, keys, guitar, and a trio of female vocals. In October 2024 Rhodes launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for her debut album. The campaign was a huge success and here we are not one year later and ‘HER SAY’ is on its way.       

‘HER SAY’ is a coming-of-age confessional. It tells the story of a woman breaking free and coming home to herself and her own sense of belonging. HER SAY’ came to life at Seattle’s world-renowned Temple of the Trees recording studio, crafted with grammy-winning producer Bradley Laina, her band, and a handful of guest artists. The result is a soul-folk-rock journey that some describe as soulful indie rock. Each track is a world of its own, rich with emotion and steeped in empathy. There are road songs, ballads, pop melodies, and quiet epiphanies: all held together by Tavia’s powerful voice and vision.
