THRILLIONAIRE

Thrillionaire was started by Jen Turner, formerly of Here We Go Magic, and Henri Tiefenthaler in late 2011. They met at Henri's debut DJ night with Chris Holmes at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and bonded over their mutual love of Krautrock.

The band's sound is characterized by polyphonic vocal melodies and drum beats influenced by Krautrock bands such as Can, Stereolab and Neu!

Jen Turner plays guitar in the band - as she did with Natalie Merchant (in HWGM she played the bass). Henrietta Tiefenthaler plays bass, and contributes programming and sound design.

In the initial incarnation, L.A. drummer Joey Waronker played drums before leaving to tour with Atoms for Peace and Ultraista. His drumming features in most of the song recordings.

Cedric LeMoyne (bass) and Marius de Vries (keyboards) played with Thrillionaire at their first show in LA's 3 of Clubs, and Nate Walcott has played keys with the band also.

Fuschia Kate Sumner is now on keyboards and Jeremy Parise on bass.
