Interview with Taali


Listen Later

We had the pleasure of interviewing Taali over Zoom video!

Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and producer Taali unveils her evocative new single ‘It Comes For You.’ A seasoned songsmith who has collaborated with such luminaries as Aloe Blacc, Moby, José James and Mali Music, Taali has received acclaim in Billboard, NPR, KCRW and Bust Magazine.

Working with Grammy-winning bassist Ben Williams (who also plays with visionary jazz icons Herbie Hancock and Kamasi Washington) and drummer Dustin Kaufman (who also plays with other boundary-pushing acts like St. Lucia and Moon Boots), Taali takes us on a late night emotional journey through the wreckage of post-pandemic 2023. Waves of shifting synths and shimmering vocal choirs recast the downbeat ethereality of such artists as Beach House, St. Vincent, Portishead and Kate Bush, as Taali explores the peaks and valleys of experiencing - and ultimately overcoming - our collective modern trauma. The song is accompanied by an atmospheric lo-fi video that was shot on Taali’s journeys around the world over the last two years.

Out March 10, Taali’s upcoming self-titled album is her most ambitious and personal statement yet. Inspired by her Jewish roots and wandering spirit, taali features musicians from Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw Orchestra, and explores themes of hope and redemption amid our modern state of anxiety. Check out a 3-song sampler here.

“They say that there is nothing new under the sun. But, they, surely, had not heard of Taali yet. Taali, the singer-songwriter-producer is nothing short of refreshing.” -Bust Magazine

“What stands out most about Taali’s productions are the emphasis on vocals - ethereal in all the right spots and powerful when needed.” -KCRW

“Taali fuses a beguiling mix of layered vocals, chamber pop and avant-electronica to directly address trauma, love, and identity.” -Guitar Girl Magazine
