Xenia Ghali

Xenia Ghali maintains her own collection of luxury hand accessories while operating as a big-room DJ, songwriter, and producer under contract with Pitbull’s imprint. Raised in Athens, Greece, she took up piano at age five and later added other orchestral instruments to her skills. In her teens the focus shifted to pop and rock, at which point she acquired drums and guitar. College in London introduced the multi-instrumentalist to dance music; she soon purchased two turntables and began mixing house before moving into additional dance styles. Early local sets grew into mid-level bookings, and appearances at the prominent clubs Ministry of Sound and Pacha in Ibiza placed her among superstar DJs. Completion of a master’s degree in music production at NYU brought her to the United States, where she started laying down personal demos. In 2014 she signed with Pitbull’s Mr. 305 label and issued the single “Broken,” featuring Katt Rockell.
