There is nothing ordinary about Tala Samman. Fast becoming a prevalent name within the Middle Easts DJ circuit, the US-born Syrian beauty brings more than just the music. An original It Girl of the region, Samman offers fresh beats with her sets working off the vibe of the crowd.

Born in Chicago and raised in Dubai, she always had a love for music. Playing the violin growing up, her interest in the industry was further sparked by her sisters collections of vinyls and friends who worked as singers, producers and DJs within the industry. Travelling the world, she first tried her hand at the art when studying in London. Picking up the classes back in Dubai, she put in the time attending workshops for 10 hours a week for a year.
