When I met Twin Sister at a bar in Brooklyn I had no prior knowledge of their music. At that moment they were friends of friends celebrating some press from Pitchfork. Naturally interested in the band after a few shared drinks, I checked them out the next day and downloaded their free EP from their website. The four songs make Twin Sister an immediate choice as a breakout band for 2010.
"Ginger" in particular is a perfect pop song with lovely vocals and the right amount of atmospheric reverby guitars.
Twin Sister is essentially playing every night in Brooklyn over the next month before heading to Austin to play SXSW, so you'll have plenty of opportunities to catch them.
