Taxi Doll is an American pop, electronica, and dance musical group from Los Angeles, California. Taxi Doll took their name from seeing the bobble-head dolls perched on top on the rear dash of taxicabs[citation needed]. The group consists of European vocalist Dhana, keyboardist Gregg "G-dub" Allen, drummer Jason Graham, guitarist Matt Emner, and bassist Brian Hendrix.

The group was formed in 2004 and called their type of music "Rocktronica", which was inspired by the influences of Blondie, Garbage, The Chemical Brothers, and other rock-electronic acts. They have also attracted a growing legion of fans who love their unique style. As Allen sums it up, they "..play edgy rock music that people can dance to..."

The group's first single, "Waiting", has already become a major hit in both the clubs and at Dance radio in the United States, where it reached at number #3 on Billboard's Hot Dance Airplay chart's May 27, 2006 issue. "Look at What You Get" is on the soundtrack of Forza Motorsport 2, the Microsoft Xbox 360 game. The group's music can also be found on the big screen in the 2006 feature film Firewall.

Taxi Doll has been signed by Universal Records and are awaiting the release of their first album. Their album titled "Here and Now" was released globally on the 23rd of February 2009.
