That haircut right there is enough on its own to make me want to discard my long-held biases and hit the New Palace to see Twin Shadow, aka George Lewis Jr., headline an HPX show there on Friday, Oct. 21st. Lewis released the much buzzed-about Forget last year, and even a cursory listen to the melancholy melange of influences he coerces into some rather beautiful tracks makes me think this will be a rather buzzed about show. So go see him, biases be damned! MP3:: Twin Shadow - Changes [...]
After stumbling across some music by 80s Italia disco group Bagarre, George Lewis Jnr (aka Twin Shadow) fell in love with the track 'Circus Is Gone' and added it to his live shows. After tinkering around with tempo and adding lucious synths with the help of Twin Shadow keyboardist Wynne Bennett they have recorded it with mixer Michael Brauer, and what has emerged is an energetic and vibrant reminder of how good this artist is. A long awaited follow up to his awesome debut Forget is due out in the first half of 2012 via 4AD. Until then, enjoy the [...]
George Lewis Jr., who releases music under the moniker Twin Shadow , has poked his well-coiffed head into new wave, electro-pop and R&B, and has come out groomed to be a pop star. His debut "Forget," a hybrid of all those genres topped with yearning Morrissey vocals, made a memorable splash in 2010, and he's well on his way to releasing a follow-up album slated for a release in 2012. His first single, "Changes," may sound familiar if you've ever heard of the '80s group Baggare and their song "Circus Is Gone." Twin Shadow's renaming of the track is [...]
Usually I avoid cover songs. It's not that I have anything against them; in fact, I'm always worried they're going to be too good. This is especially true if it's a cover of a song I already like. How can there possibly be room in my heart for two (or more!) versions of the same song? (Plus, I already have the entire Smith's discography hanging out in there, and I need to conserve space.) Of course, I immediately broke my "no covers" rule for Twin Shadow, aka George Lewis Jr. There's no way I, a self-proclaimed new wave junkie, could deny his [...]

Here is a little snippet that Twin Shadow, otherwise known as George Lewis Jr, had to say about the song: Close to a year ago I discovered one of my favorite bands. Like most of [...]
Tweetvaso link I don't think I'm an individual who falls for hype. The people who know me best may disagree with that statement, but musically, for the most part, I tend to avoid artists who receive overly positive reviews for the simple fact that they've garnered such praise. That's probably foolish of me, and in...
