I saw Twin Sister open up for The Morning Benders last week, and I was blown away. Specifically, I was entranced by lead singer Andrea Estella. Her voice is brilliantly textured, a combination of Leslie Feist’s cuteness and Victoria Legrand’s smoky throatiness. Man do I dig that type of stuff.
Twin Sister is still working on their polish a little bit – in concert they were really good but not flawless. But it’s easy to forgive a few misplaced notes here and there when the songs are so addictively catchy. “I Want A House” is easily my favorite of their songs, a spaced-out and laid-back tune reminiscent of The XX.
“Nectarine” is a little more upbeat, but retains the casual vibe that makes this band so rare – they’re patient without seeming lackadaisical. A male vocalist takes the microphone here, joined by Estella only for some slippery little harmonies. Nice. I really dig their sound, looking forward to hearing them more in the future. These guys are onto something good.
