Tei Shi (pronounced "tay-shee") is the moniker of singer/songwriter and producer Valerie Teicher.
Growing up between Bogotá, Colombia and Vancouver, Canada, Tei Shi is heavily influenced by her ever changing environment and cross-cultural identity.
Tei Shi is touring in support of her new album, make believe I make believe. Her boldest project yet, weaving dreamy pop and sharp lyricism into something both intimate and cinematic, while digging deeper into themes of self-discovery and resilience.
Across her catalog, she's built a reputation for blending vulnerability with empowerment, moving effortlessly from glossy R&B textures to left-of-center pop gems and LIVE... she's the total package, empowered, badass, magnetic, glam, and full of vision and raw talent !

Since her first two EPs, Saudade (2013) and Verde (2015) "introduced her to the world as a skilled and fluid vocalist... [Tei Shi] has fully stepped into her own, brewing up confections centered on trusting your own intuition." (Pitchfork). Her groundbreaking song Bassically garnered over 17 million streams on Spotify alone and set the scene for her critically acclaimed debut album Crawl Space (2017), which was highly revered by the likes of NPR, The New Yorker, Pitchfork, The Fader and The Guardian, and projected her as one of today's most influential multidisciplinary acts.
On the heels of the Crawl Space release, Tei Shi embarked on world tours and made headway in the art and fashion world, partnering with culturally iconic brands like MoMA, Helmut Lang, Northface, Glossier, ACNE and Collina Strada, as well as collaborated with Blood Orange on his album Negro Swan. In addition to joining him onstage at 2019's Coachella Music Festival, Tei Shi also starred in Blood Orange's video for Hope alongside Diddy, A$AP Rocky, and Tyler the Creator.
In November of 2019, Tei Shi released La Linda, her much-anticipated second full-length album. Emotionally evocative and sonically daring, "the 11-track project sees Tei Shi more self-assured and fully formed than ever" (i-D). On this album, Tei Shi embraces her Latin roots and multi- cultural identity, seamlessly shifting between the languages and musical genres that make her such a unique songwriter and noteworthy artist.
