Fusing avant-garde, pop and vaudeville sounds, the dark glam opera band, Timur and the Dime Museum creates a rich amalgam of sensibilities with Bjork fierceness, and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins theatricality. Led by the rising opera singer from Kazakhstan Timur Bekbosunov, profiled in LA Weekly's BEST OF LA People Issue 2011, the band’s stunning intensity brings songs to cure the new depression with a post-punk bohemian attitude.
