Tal Arditi

Fresh from selling out his local home-town Berlin, and playing with the likes of Black Sea Dahu and Steph Strings, all signs are pointing to a meteoric 2025 for the singer/songwriter Tal Arditi.

A musical prodigy who completed his jazz studies by the age of 18, Tal’s sound lies somewhere between José González, Nick Drake and Tash Sultana, with vocals influenced by Patrick Watson. His evocative lyrics are stripped and bare - detailing his struggles, obsessions, passions and fears.

Arriving in Berlin fresh after graduating jazz school, Tal quickly turned heads in the European jazz scene, landing work at clubs and festivals all over Europe. And then the pandemic came. Tal was 21. With no stage to play on, Tal turned to writing confessional music and locked himself in his bedroom for two weeks. When he emerged, it was with a completely new sound. His early material was immediately signed to the Swiss indie label Mouthwatering Records. The lead single from the EP, You and I, was featured by Spotify on its New Music Friday playlists for Germany and Switzerland. Tal will be releasing records from his upcoming EP “Close Your Eyes” throughout 2024 and 2025, and is currently writing his upcoming album.
