Mini bio
How it started.
Tahliah Debrett Barnett grew up in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. She moved to London around 17 to attend dance school and later worked as a backing dancer. Music and movement were already connected for her: she told Pitchfork that growing up in a quiet place encouraged her imagination.
Finding her own voice.
She released EP1 in 2012 and EP2 in 2013, then her debut album LP1 in 2014. Those early releases established the combination fans still follow: close, expressive singing, unusual production and a visual world shaped by dance.
Building the catalogue.
MAGDALENE followed in 2019, written and produced by twigs with major contributions from Nicolas Jaar. CAPRISONGS arrived in 2022 as a mixtape built around friends and collaborators, including the Weeknd, Jorja Smith, Shygirl and Rema.
A new way to move.
Raving in Prague while filming The Crow helped inspire EUSEXUA. In 2025 she released that album and its companion EUSEXUA Afterglow. EUSEXUA won the 2026 Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic Album, and her Body High tour brought the music into a show combining singing, choreography and visual art.
