About Telekinetic Walrus


Telekinetic Walrus is an experimental collective that creates a funky, psychedelic hip-hop, and electronic experience, that immerses the listener in an unexpected fantasy world of bass and space travel. Unabashedly wild and intent on amping up the crowd, this Miami-based crew has taken stages by storm and kept parties popping since 2009. The group delivers a mesmerizing performance wrought with the finest beats, eloquently articulated lyricisms, and enough heavy bass to turn up an extraterrestrial dance party. Throw in some cosmic costumery, as well as some theatrical interludes and you can instantly feel their vibe in whatever city they happen to land their spaceship. Telekinetic Walrus is comprised of a group of intergalactic superheroes: Y Diz - Ableton Live Certified Trainer/Producer; The Time-Zoo Keeper - Vocals/MC; Corinne Stevie - Vocals/MC; Faun 5000 - Saxophone/Flute/Keys; Komakozie - Beatbox/MC; and Buffalo Brown - Guitar. In the Summer of 2015, this team of elite warrior-explorers will embark on their first U.S. National tour to celebrate the release of their new full-length album, The Spaceship With The Heavy Bass Bump.
Having put in a solid year of touring in 2014, releasing four EPs, a single, a new music video, and a successful crowdfunding campaign for a new tour van, the crew has set their course for a Summer run of music festivals, as well as headlining shows from coast to coast. Telekinetic Walrus has shared bills with a diverse range of international acts, such as The Chemical Brothers, Flying Lotus, Skrillex, Moby, STS9, Del The Funky Homosapien, Rubblebucket, RJD2, Thundercat, Empire of the Sun, Afrobeta, Otto von Schirach, and visionary artist, Alex Grey. The group has played at Ultra Music Festival, all three Grassroots Festivals, III Points Music Festival, and Orange Blossom Jamboree, to name a few. A diverse artist collective, known as The Telekinetic Family, supports the band in all it's creative endeavors. Telekinetic Walrus focuses daily on spreading their music and positive vibes to a worldwide audience, while consistently producing live performances that unify people through active peace.
