Taxi Doll is an American pop, electronica, and dance musical group from Los Angeles, California.

The group consists of European vocalist Dhana Taprogge, leopardist Gregg "G-dub" Allen, drummer Jason Graham, guitarist Matt Emmer, 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.
