Teleskopes

Teleskopes, are a Los Angeles based three-piece rock act comprised of Fox Fagan (bass, vocals), Pelle Hillstrom (guitar), and Jesper Kristensen (drums).

Individually, the trio are known for their roles as producers and musicians for various artists in the LA area, collectively they create a blend of droney, shoegazing space-rock that reaches atmospheric levels.

Their latest offering comes in the form of the new single, “Holy Water”, the title of which was inspired by a concoction digested by the band on a creative trip to Landers, located in the high desert of California. A house was locked out for several days where undisrupted writing and recording led to the initial creation of the ethereal sounds that feature on the track, then finished off later at their home studio in North Hollywood.

The trio formed when Hillstrom and Kristensen connected with Fagan, who had just relocated to Los Angeles from Australia. After working together on other various projects, the three eventually began the process of writing their own music. Early songs developed organically and methodically from their initial focus, which was on developing their live show on the LA club music scene.

In 2017 Teleskopes released their debut EP “Stereocilia”, a six-track collection of songs that takes the listener on a journey of sweeping soundscapes, towering guitar walls, and swirling atmospherics all wrapped carefully around Fagan’s voice. Songs like “Criminal”, “Lazers”, and “Crystal Clear”, caught the attention of local taste makers like Buzzbands LA’s Kevin Bronson and Mark Sovel at KLOS fm. Additionally to this “Stereocilia”, was added to over 100 college and non commercial radio stations across the USA.
