The Twang were signed back in the mid-noughties and lauded by NME as Britain’s best new band.
Hailing from Quinton in Birmingham, founders Phil Etheridge and Jon Watkin came together musically after meeting at Kidderminster College. Originally called Neon Twang, the band enjoyed great success with debut album Love It When I Feel Like This, reaching number three in the charts.
They followed up with Jewellery Quarter (2009), 10:20 (2012) and Neontwang (2014) but have since released material at a slower pace.
Recent times have seen them play numerous festivals and headline shows, support Shed Seven on a mammoth tour and perform alongside the likes of Doves, Johnny Marr, The Coral and the Kaiser Chiefs.
