Telos

Telos was started in April of 2011 by Keith Goldsworth and Josue Molinari. Being only two guitar players, they decided it was time to take their songs and add an extra edge to them. These two decided to add an old friend, pianist Sam Napoli, to the line-up. After these 3 built a list of songs to play, they added the rest of the members and came up with the name Telos, which is Greek for "purpose," "end," or "goal". Telos is a 6 member Post Hardcore/Metal group from Cleveland, OH with the belief that, no matter what problems you face in life, they can be overcome by believing in yourself, and help from friends and family! Telos built a following in Cleveland sharing the stage with acts such as Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, For All Those Sleeping, The Devil Wears Prada, Attack Attack and many more. The band played Cerebral Entertainment's battle of the bands titled "Road to Rockapalooza," and took first place with a score of 98 out of 100 points. This assured them a spot on the first and only Rockapalooza Ohio with The Devil Wears Prada, Attack Attack, Machine Gun Kelley, Wu Tang Clan, and more! They Co-Headlined the Cerebral Entertainment stage, and took off from there. With a stage presence unmatched by any local band, Telos has grown a dedicated fan base of all ages, both male and female. With catchy hooks and heavy verses, Telos is ready to take their music on the road, and show the world what they are made of! The Telos line-up consists of Dyllan James(vocals), Josue Molinari(Lead Guitar), Keith Goldsworth(Guitar/vocals), Sam Napoli(Keys), and James Dingess(Bass), John Medvetz(Drums).
