Influenced by melodies and imagery from her Armenian heritage and her parents' birthplaces of Lebanon and Ethiopia, Kali fuses her lineage with sonics of the modern countercultures she grew up embracing, exploring everything from punk to Brit-pop. With fiery live sets and swirling sonics, Taleen and her band have quickly become a fixture in the L.A. music underground.
