Fronted by infamous identical twins Donald (The Hornet) and Stuart (Smackay) Mackay, the Dunfermline dream team are delighted to present their first release.
A sunshine gilded guitar-pop gem that sounds something like a cross between Steve Harleyās seventies rock statements and The Viewās energetic indie trailblazers, āDive Inā is a bright and breezy introduction to one of Scotlandās must-watch new talents.Ā
Releasing their debut single with a video by Tongue Twister Films, you can tune into the visuals for āDive Inā.
Perhaps best known from their previous projects Wingnuts and Wƶlves, the brothers have already earned their rockānāroll stripes, performing legendary shows from the Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow to the gig haunts of Amsterdam. Setting forth on a new adventure in music, the duo have recruited a sextet of familiar faces to help bring their latest musical visions to life. On the sticks is Wayne Robertson (The Wasp), who has a wealth of experience in his own right, most notably with Dunfermline legends, The Falcons. Taking up guitar duties is local Dunfermline guitar hero, Harry Dixon (The Duke), who can āsmash out a tune on anything with stringsā. Plus, last but not least, is the classically trained keyboardist Mark Guyan (AKA The Darkness).Ā
With an illuminating chemistry and a clutch of songs already nailed down, Twinstown are already recording what will be their debut album at Tpot Studios in Perthshire with producer Robin Evans (who recorded The Viewās critically acclaimed debut, āHats off to the Buskersā).Ā
