TWAYN'S DEBUT EP ‘CUPID ISNT REAL’ IS OUT NOW

  ‘Boarding Pass’ takes the girls music in a slightly different direction and gets their debut EP ('Cupid Isn't Real') off to a flying start with haunting synths, punchy brass and Grace's beautiful vocals. The
track tells the story of the romantic interest leaving for a new girl, having “never
even loved me anyway”. Metaphors such as “first class, sipping champagne on your
way there” also illustrate the development in Twayn’s lyricism and artistry. The final
moments of the track provide intrigue as an announcement is made: “Will all
passengers boarding flight 308 please proceed to Gate 16".

 ‘I Went On A Date Today’ is a heart-wrenching, honest ‘message to an ex’ which plays out the agony of going on a date with someone new, whilst deep down still pining for a previous love.  This sweet ballad talks of the guilt when, try as you might, you just don’t feel the same way for this new person. The lyrics are sweet and reflective and sung with openness and complete honesty.  “I went on a date today and thought about you the whole time … I kept on wondering what it would be like if it was you. Why did flirting feel like feel like such a lie, why didn’t it feel true”.  

These beautiful lyrics are certain to resonate with anyone who still has feelings for a former love.

'XOXO' is a slightly funkier, pop vibe compared to previous releases which have been more pared back with focus on acoustic harmonies.   GenZ themes continue with this ‘revenge’ track which lyrically references being left out of birthday celebrations of those who have purported to be friends for years and points out how unpleasant and unkind this behaviour has been.  The track makes obvious the deep sense of hurt and unfairness that being left out and marginalized has caused.  The gem of the track vocalizes the determination that, once they begin to move on with their lives and into new circles, they will quite simply ‘return the favour’ and ignore the old, fake friend when they come knocking to be part of their future success.

Lyrically this track speaks to the importance of song writing as a mechanism to cope with the challenges of being a teenager in today’s social media world. Pain-filled lyrics such as, 'Stop framing me to be the villain', and, 'Don't forget I'm human too', evoke the sense of hurt and heartache that can be caused by uninformed speculation. The truth at the core of the song is that song writing, and music generally, help and heal and that’s a good thing.

Hannah and Grace say, "Post Script tells of how writing down thoughts and feelings can provide you with comfort, whilst navigating all the challenges that life throws at you. We see this track as drawing a line on our school years. It’s an end to one phase of our lives, and the dawn of an exciting new chapter for Twayn as we focus on music full-time with financial support from Help Musicians.”

The twins are doing it again with another terrific ballad. 'Your Stupid Show' was written during Covid lockdown, "the year the world went mad", and is about being 'ghosted' and ultimately losing a relationship at a really challenging time. This track is full of the beautiful harmonies we've come to expect from this talented young duo and a little bit of accordion adds an unique sound.

The girls say, "We are so excited to be releasing this track which means a lot to us.  We have lots more new music coming out this year which we can't wait to share".

Just 18 years old but writing songs that truly tap into Gen-Z themes, Twayn is set for big things.

Talking about the inspiration behind their latest song, Hannah and Grace said, "Don't Do Drugs brings a new edge to our music and contrasts with our previous harmony-driven ballads.  We wanted this song to have strong drums and more of a rock vibe.  It also had the surprising addition of Hannah playing a bit of Ukelele to give a slightly querky intro".

The song was created in conjunction with ISG, Platform North East and Kycker.  It describes the sadness of falling for someone you realise isn't interested in you in that way and how you come to terms with the situation when he falls for someone else.
