Killsonic is an Experimental Orchestra based in Los Angeles California

Since their foundation in 2010, Tes Elations has been weaving the strings of the old world into the visceral fabric of the rock era. Their music is equally rooted in both classical composition and experimental rock/punk. This union of seemingly distant sources is embodied in their instrumentation: 2 contrapuntal cellos, guitar, and drumset accompany the hauntingly distinct voice of Barrie Rose.

Formed as a result of collaboration with the Klaus Nomi songwriter Kristian Hoffman, dark glam opera band Timur and the Dime Museum, described by Los Angeles Times as “punk-operatic spectacle”, appeared at the prestigious ALOUD series; America’s Got Talent; opened for Tiger Lilies, The Red Paintings, DeVotchKa, Prince Poppycock; Un-cabaret (Margaret Cho); premiered operas “Zoophilic Follies” by Daniel Corral at Redcat Theater’s NOW festival, and “Crescent City” by Anne LeBaron. Led by “stratospheric tenor” (LA Times) Timur Bekbosunov, recently featured in LA Weekly’s BEST OF LA 2011, the band embraces multi-disciplinary collaboration as part of their ongoing work with composers and songwriters. They established a strong following of fans, and received endorsements from artists, such as Amanda Palmer, Nick Urata and Sondre Lerche, and in the past two years band performed in numerous venues around LA and beyond, including Portland, San Francisco, and Seattle. The band creates unconventional and fascinating sounds, combining Timur's voice with electric guitar, upright bass, accordion, bass clarinet, viola, and drums.
