T?L? was born in Hampton to an Iranian father and an English mother. Coming from a family of mixed heritage meant she was immersed in a variety of sounds, from Iranian Googosh to Michael Ball with Garage, RnB and Hip Hop in between. She was always encouraged by her father to pick up any instrument and just play it and this freedom of expression is clear in her production style.

T?L? set about traveling to Qatar to discover more music and find inspiration and upon her return she began producing a beat tape with a view to posting it independently online. The music got in the hands of Brixton based label Aesop and turning the work into 'The Duchess' EP. On the back of 'The Duchess' she
signed with Columbia and released a further 3 EPs, including the experimental 'Malika' which found her traveling to collaborate with artists from Egypt, Turkey, South Korea and the US. Wolfpack, a collaboration with BANKS was a particular stand out track and began T?L?'s transition into electronic
producer and RnB songwriter.

In that time she was part of Channel 4's Future Sounds, Vevo's DSCVR, Dazed's 100 Most Influential Creatives, sold out headline shows at The Courtyard and TheICA. She has remixed for the likes of Katy Perry, Dermot Kennedy and Petite Noir, worked with brands such as Missoni, Bose and Native Instruments as well as flexing her production muscles on Fact Magazine's 'Against the Clock' and delivering production masterclasses with Aulart. She recently produced for Nike's 'Like a Lioness' Women's World Cup campaign.

Last year T?L? Executively Produced BANKS' fourth studio album 'Serpentina' and worked on Enny's 'Champagne Problems'. She also was gratefully invited by the British Council on to their digital residency programme where she collaborated with artists from Indonesia, further expanding her credentials as a truly
global artist who collaborates with artists all over the world and recently created a bespoke piece of music for Nike's Women's World Cup campaign.
This year T?L? will release her much anticipated album.
