Emir Taha

About

Musician and artist from Turkey. His music took off during the pandemic and surpassed 50 million streams on Spotify from his debut EP. He's done all this from Bristol, London, though as he's had to establish a residence there after being stuck there from the lockdowns caused by the novel coronavirus. The summer of 2022 saw him embark on his first extended international tour including his appearance at a venue in Kosavo. 

Before Fame

He is multi-lingual, and fluent in both Turkish and English, so he has been able to thrive since establishing his home in Bristol. His music reflects this comfort straddling two cultures in music that fits comfortably into the genre of alternative, crisp R&B with some left-field electronica interweaving both languages throughout the lyrics. 

Trivia

His social media presence is strong and includes most of the major platforms. His YouTube page is a sensation with more than 190,000 followers. His Instagram account is a more limited expression of his fan base, boasting more than 50,000 followers. His other two accounts include Twitter and Facebook that has more than 2,000 and 9,000 followers, respectively.
