As the singer and songwriter for the mighty Brooklyn based Nervous Cabaret, Elyas Khan’s reputation precedes him. His live performances are bloodily moving: by turns Ellington, Post punk, Led Zeppelin and vaudeville orchestra.

The song writing of Elyas Khan, described by fans as “royalty in dirty disguise", crashes from violent to fragile in a seemingly endless variety of arrangements and orchestrations.

Nervous Cabaret play around NYC/USA and the European festival circuits alongside Sonic Youth, Tarif de Haidouks, Alain Bashung, Jamie Lidell, among others... and Elyas as a solo artist shares stages with the likes of French sensations Mademoiselle K, Nouvelle Vague and Sebastien Tellier.
