Brooklyn NY, United States

Twin Shadow is the stage name of American musician George Lewis Jr. Lewis was born in the Dominican Republic and raised in Florida, before eventually relocating to Brooklyn and adopting the Twin Shadow moniker.

In 2010 he released his debut album Forget, produced by Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear. The album has been described as “steeped in 1980s new wave”, “building from streaks of haunting synth textures” and “hazily new wave-tinged pop”. Twin Shadow was the Rolling Stone ‘Band of the Week’ on October 7, 2010.

  • Machiventa

    Love his first album a lot but I feel it's gonna be pretty hard to follow up.

    Sunday morning

  • yugman

    He should make a record with David Bowie. Something about Forget reminds me so much of Let's Dance.

    Spoke with George after his Sydney show today (he had the crowd dancing in unison by the end of his set). He's a little shy and still strikes me as a little surprised-come-overwhelmed by his fame. He was really nice all the same and even gave the person standing next to me his e-mail address when asked, haha. He said that he hopes to release album number 2 at some point in the American summer. Exciting!

    @ Carl_Martin He's anything but an asshole to his fans. Sorry to hear it wasn't as good of an experience but when I saw him he played a phenomenal show and on top of that was really friendly when I spoke to him later.

    Super tight performance in Brisbane yesterday. George seemed to be enjoying himself too.

    Has anyone else noticed how similar his last.fm picture is to Nicholas Jaar's?

    three6leon: I got the same impression when I saw him at Way Out West. And the concert kind of sucked. Somehow they played faster and faster as the songs went on. In the end it was like listening to a chipmunk remix of his songs.
