Most people are lucky to have one successful career, but that's not the case for actor-turned-rocker-turned-morning show host-turned hockey broadcaster Tara Slone! Tara first pursued her passion for music professionally by becoming the lead singer of the Juno-nominated rock group Joydrop, and then as a finalist on the hit CBS series Rockstar: INXS. Tara also appeared in dozens of films, television shows, and stage productions early in her entertainment career. In 2010, Tara became host of Breakfast Television Calgary, where she spent five years. It was there that she was given the opportunity to work in the world of sports, acting as a regular contributor to Sportsnet, Canada's #1 Sports channel, covering the WHL and USports hockey, curling, soccer, and bobsleigh. For 8 years, Tara co-hosted the groundbreaking NHL broadcast Rogers Hometown Hockey alongside Ron MacLean, where she became the first woman to host a national NHL show. Tara also helmed the weekly Sportsnet series Top of [HER] Game in 2020 and 2021, focusing on stories of empowered women in the world of sports. Tara is also a 2021 Canadian Screen Award nominee for her work on the CityTV music program Budweiser Stage at Home. Tara Slone uses her extensive experience from theatre, music, and broadcasting to connect to her audiences on multiple levels as a genuine entertainment professional.
