TAAHLIAH cut her teeth as a DJ, emerging as one of the most exciting artists working within the Scottish electronic music scene.
Since her debut release on untitled (recs) last summer, DJ and producer TAAHLIAH has been making waves at numerous events across the UK, shelling down Charles Jeffrey’s London Fashion Week party and sharing stages with the likes of DJ Stingray, Kelly Lee Owens and LSDXOXO. Fresh off the back of playing a plethora of exciting shows, including Mary Anne Hobbs’ ALL QUEENS night at Fabric – TAAHLIAH has also just been nominated as BBC Scottish Act of the Year.
TAAHLIAH is confidently cementing her position amongst the main players of the electronic music landscape, earning extensive praise from her peers including VTSS, Loraine James, and Sherelle – who have collaborated with her both on stage and in the studio.
Heralded as a breakthrough artist by a range of tastemakers including DJ Mag, Mixmag, and Jaguar (BBC Radio 1), TAAHLIAH is also the first black trans artist to be nominated and win in two categories at the Scottish Alternative Music Awards – followed by Angelica being longlisted for Scottish Album of the Year Awards.
"When other trans people talk to me about the music and how the music has made them feel; I think that has been the most precious thing for me. The connection they feel to it, and towards me as an artist, I really, really treasure." -TAAHLIAH
