Shook Twins
“Crisper” – New name, I think they're great, really
mixing up acoustic folky country" - Marie Crichton BBC Radio Shropshire
Shook Twins are
an Indie folk-pop band now hailing
from coniferous forested Portland, Oregon. Identical twins, Katelyn and Laurie Shook, Kyle Volkman (Upright and electric Bass - photo) and Niko Daoussis (mandolin, electric guitar, electric drums, bass, vocals - photo) form the core quartet along
with Anna Tivel (fiddle,
mandolin, vocals - photo).
They were born
and raised in Sandpoint Idaho (a tourist town of 5,000 to 10,000,
"depending on the season," says Katelyn).
Central elements
of the Shook Twins' sound are a wide range of instrumentation, including banjo,
guitar, electric and upright bass, mandolin, electric guitar, electronic drums,
face drum (beatbox), glockenspiel, ukulele, banjo drumming and their signature
golden EGG. Beautiful twin harmonies, layered upon acoustic and electric
instrumentation coupled with Laurie’s inventive use of percussive and ambient
vocal loops, and Katelyn’s repurposed telephone microphone, set their sound
apart, creating a unique and eccentric blend of folk, roots, groove and soul.
Following an
annual Winter Ski Tour 2014 through their native Idaho, to Wyoming and Utah,
the Shook Twins made a much-anticipated three-day debut appearance at this
year's Folk Alliance Conference in Kansas City, MO (Feb. 20 - 22, 2014)
Their new single
"Shake" went for radio
airplay adds on March 10, 2014.
The Shook Twins
enlisted Grammy Award-nominated producer Ryan Hadlock (The Lumineers, Fleet
Foxes, Brandi Carlile), recording at
Bear Creek Studio (image) for their third full-length studio album, WHAT WE DO, independently released on April 8, 2014; mastered by
Gavin Lurssen (Loretta Lynn, Tom Waits).
The Shook Twins
have that DIY spirit…" Identical twins, Katelyn and Laurie Shook,
certainly are a DIY success story; they raised $26,734 of a $25,000 goal (391 Backers)
via Kickstarter a crowd funded project to record it.
Their album
release show took place on Friday April 11th at Mississippi Studios, Portland. On
Facebook they posted: Today is the day! "What We Do" is officially
available to the WORLD! Thank you to everyone who helped us make this amazing
album. We couldn't have done it without YOU!
The album is the
sound of two preternaturally talented siblings making the music they want to
make with a wide-eyed sense of wonder and the good sense to absorb whatever the
world puts in their path. "We have a
golden egg and a telephone microphone. Laurie beatboxes. We do all-live looping,"
Katelyn says. "It's definitely not
your average folk." Read more Portland Mercury.com
