" Terry Poison, often described as the “Tarantino of Pop”, has risen from the sweaty underground to become Israel’s largest electro-rocknroll band. A true love child of samplers, guitar riffs, analogue synths and apocalyptic beats, Terry Poison’s sound is unique and completely contagious.
Beyond the music, a great emphasis is also put on staging and fashion, supported by two of Tel Aviv’s most renowned stylists. Live shows can be expected to be “highly sweaty and delicious,” promising minimal clothing and tons of dancing.
Recently hitting the mainstream, Terry Poison has produced three hits that reached number one on Israeli National Radio charts, sharing a stage with acts such as CSS, Justice, Calvin Harris, as well as opening for Depeche Mode.
Performing relentlessly in Europe and Israel since 2005, Terry Poison, following the release of their first full-length album in May, is ready to bring their act to America for the first time and rock out from coast to coast."
Putting a great emphasis on music, staging and fashion, supported by two of TLV’s most renowned stylists, Terry Poison’s music and live shows have been described as nothing short of “American sleaze with European finesse”, “Highly provocative, sweaty and delicious”, “A true love child of samplers and guitar riffs, analog synths and apocalyptic beats” their favorite: “The Tarantino of pop”.
"We like to think of ourselves as a Terry Poison party"
In the darkest corner of the stage, Anna our new guitarist is having her own little goth party, always dressed in white and ready to bite (Anna is the serial heart-breaker of the band).
Petite the forever fourteen year baby doll is having her 9th grade party playing, keyboards and singing songs in french. She's always a little heartbroken and dances accordingly. Petite often prepares sweet love letters that she wraps up into paper airplanes and sends out to the audience in hope of finding some one to take her home after the show.
Gili is the outstretched actress on a synth guitar sometimes vocodtting and doing backing vocals. She’s always a little unstable due to too much whiskey and way to high heels which makes her roaring above like a party giraffe.
Then there is the walrus, Louise, the lead singer and number one madame of the band. She is in charge of the crazy dancing, working hard in front of her bedroom mirror inventing new dance moves. A real-life Norwegian Power-Puff girl, plays keyboards and guitars and co-writes the trax with the Pimp, Mr. Bruno Grife.
Last but not least there is the pimp, Bruno , in charge of the groove, playing the synthbass and pushes the beats to heart of the dance floor. Bruno is a beat-master, in-the-shadows- compu-wiz-kid – in charge of the fabulous sound.
