Multifaceted mogul TALIA COLES embodies the word couture; merging high impact, genre breaking music with stunning elements of fashion and dance. Talia is the premiere artist from her aptly named music-based content company, Couture Music, where she is Founder and Co-President, along with entertainment industry heavyweight (and Kevin Liles protege) Jojo Brim (Brim is Senior Manager at KWL Enterprises; the firm representing Platinum recording artist Trey Songz, Nelly, Selita Ebanks, and Big Sean).
Talia Coles draws from her culturally dynamic African-American and Puerto Rican upbringing in Harlem, New York. Her musician father also played with James Brown and Wilson Pickett. Talia immersed herself in voice, dance, and theater, and she graduated from New York’s iconic LaGuardia High School of Music and the Performing Arts with a diploma in Music History and Voice. She added Ballet and Jazz studies at Broadway Dance Theatre, enhancing her natural acumen for Hip-Hop.

Talia delivers songs with striking attention to musical nuance and commitment to rhythmic core; interlacing stiletto-sharp steps with ribbon like motion. Her buzz single Nikki Wine (featuring Elephant Man) had global impact on audiences across North America, Germany, Poland, France, Africa, and Slovakia, and was featured on a recent episode of Burn Notice (USA Networks).
Now! Talia Coles commands the new decade with her energetic pop/reggae dance phenomenon Wish I Never See You Again featuring mixes by iconic dance music deejays Razor and Guido.
