Tal (born 1990) is a French singer, songwriter, musician and dancer of Jewish Yemeni origin. She is currently signed to Warner Music France.

Career

Tal's family immigrated to France when Tal was 1 year old. She was born into a veritable musical home. Her father was a guitar player, her mother, aunt and cousin were singers, and her brother a songwriter. Her Yemeni grandfather had a great voice and used to chant religious music.

At 12, Tal learned to play piano and guitar and enrolled in dance lessons and modern jazz. She also took part in a theater group called "Les Sales Gosses". She started playing in piano bars making interpretations of classics and contemporary songs. As a fan of Michael Jackson, she and her brother improvised moves on a collection of his songs.

Her meeting with songwriter and producer L'Aura Marciano developed her career and after a collaboration of 2 years, she released her debut album Le droit de rêver[1] with pop melodies, urban rhythm and at times classical arrangements. Collaborations included Sean Paul in "Waya Waya"[2] mixed by Veronica Ferraro,[3] L'Algerino in a remake "Le sens de la vie" and John Hanes as sound engineer.

Her debut single "On avance"[4] reached #29 in SNEP, the official French Singles Chart. Her biggest hit was "Le sens de la vie" taken from the album. It reached #4 in the French charts.[5] The album also contains a bonus version of the song featuring French-Algerian L'Algérino as a bonus track.[3] Her songs deliver a message of hope and peace, without religious or cultural barriers, and a French music without boundaries.
