The Twins of Franklin are not actually twins, but rather best friends who fell in love belting show tunes and classical arias together in a dorm room. And 15 years later, they still have a lot in common. They’ve both become professional musicians, released multiple records, and played hundreds of shows as the Twins. Most recently, they’ve shared the experience of becoming moms.
“So, do you still plan on doing music?” is something Becky Shaheen and Laura Lou are asked a lot now that they have kids. Keeping the band together was always the plan and as it turns out, motherhood is actually inspiring AF. Being a mom isn’t easy, but hard things show you the good things in life. The Twins’ new music is proof of that.
Their newest album, This Life, mixes hard and soft like only one thing can — American girl rock. It’s both powerful and birdsong sweet — like taking your 70s convertible out for a rage cruise on a sunny spring day.
In contrast to the indie-pop vibe of their debut album Low, This Life lets the Twins’ siren harmonies and band do the work. That band is made up of bass/harmonica player and third harmony Joe Shaheen and powerhouse drummer Brian Riedinger. Renowned producer Kevin Bowe (Etta James, The Replacements) knew exactly how to capture the energy of a Twins of Franklin live show, giving the album a perfect mix of raw emotion and organic instrumentation.
This Life comes out on May 17th, 2024. We can't wait for you to hear it!
