Juno What?! is America’s newest contribution to the late 70’s/early 80’s-inspired, high energy, funk-disco, synth bass, electronica genre.A rising star in their field, Juno What?! is bringing their illuminated madness to every venue upon which they descend. Catalyzing dancefloors into sonic landscapes, Juno What?! is poised to take stages around the country to sternum bump its prey. A sound that is ahead of its time yet is steeped in a foundation of electro 80’s dance grooves with a healthy dose of progressive, booty-shaking themes.This is a force to be reckoned with.Featuring members of The Motet (Joey Porter: keyboards & talk box, Dave Watts: drums and samples), these accomplished musicians have gathered their collective talents and musical prowess to focus on this mission of making the world a better place…….to dance!

Music is a collective language. It can bring a sense of community among strangers, regardless of language, nationality, or beliefs. It can provide the listener an environment for creative thought and unrestrained emotion. It can manifest the beauty of people and cultures who may be thousands of miles apart. The music of Telepath strives to do all of this. Formed in 2006 and hailing from Philadelphia PA via Asheville NC, Telepath is a unique new expression in the current live and electronic music scenes. The 3-piece comprised of Michael Christie (keyboards), Curt Heiny (bass) and Mike B (drums) use a wide variety of self-created samples containing Indian and Arabic singers and musicians, Afrobeat-influenced horn lines, dubbed-out effects, and much more to generate the multi-layered sound that is Telepath. Extensively touring in support of their debut album Fire One (2006), Telepath has played to passionate audiences at theaters, clubs, and festivals around the country. Now, with the September 2008 release of their second album Contact, Telepath continues the development of a loyal and ever-growing fan base, as well as their commitment to creating a positive and inspiring environment both on record, and in live performance.
