Asleep at the Wheel

The post-punk glam band Timur and the Dime Museum fuses alternative indie sounds with fierceness and theatricality. Formed in 2010, the band is led by Kazakhstan born opera singer Timur, who the LA Weekly called a "fascinating Kazakh-American hybrid, a flamboyant performer with a beautifully haunting voice and a brilliant architect of tension". Inspired by the bohemian vaudeville of the 20's, glam mannerism of the 70's, galactic fantasies of the 80's, Timur and the Dime Museum's shows blend genres and genders, ranging from post-punk, electronic to industrial and operatic styles. The manic intensity of each show, driven by the hauntingly sardonic songs of Daniel Corral, penetrates and lovingly caresses life's persistent questions.  Combining Timur's "stratospheric voice" (LA Times) with guitar, bass, accordion, and drums, their stunning intensity bring songs to cure the new depression with a bohemian attitude.  Displaying the full arsenal of vocals and deliciously thick orchestral textures, Timur and the Dime Museum's performance tell stories of demented passions, global catastrophes and social orders.
