LOS ANGELES, CA- Teleskopes is a Los Angeles band comprised of Fox Fagan (bass, vocals), Pelle Hillstrom (guitar), and Jesper Kristensen (drums). On December 12, 2017, I was able to catch them playing an opening slot gig at the Moroccan Lounge.

Truth be told, I wasn’t planning on taking photographs of their performance. I had arrived at the venue early for one of the acts following them, but as soon as they started playing, I was drawn in by their swooping sonics and catchy melodies.

Their live performance was accompanied by a seemingly choreographed show of lights provided by the venue which enhanced the mood of each song being performed. Whether it was a a song that had hazily mellow shoegaze vibes, or a song that contained a kinetic post-grunge alternative drive, the performance- both visual and aural- was spot on, and had me listening to their limited, but polished, repertoire online the following day.

This band certainly has the sonic wherewithal to create some pretty impressive music. I’m looking forward to hearing what else these guys have up their sleeves.
