After preparing a lovely reception for Il Stupendo, the greatest tenor of his generation, for a one-night only performance in Pagliacci Max finds his star on the verge of death, the theatre in potential ruins, and worst of all his fiance has a thing for tenors!

Everything about TWEN is hands-on. Ian produces, engineers, and mixes their albums. Jane designs every visual element, from videos, to posters, to merch. They’ve screen-printed their own shirts, booked their own tours, edited their own films, and built their tour van into a full-time mobile home. Their 2022 LP One Stop Shop wasn’t just a title, it was the truth. Even now, as their reach has expanded to a sold-out Red Rocks Amphitheatre show, opening arena tours, and having played 500+ shows across North America and Europe, they’ve kept full control. It’s proof you can exist outside the system and still make something that is current and alive.

“TWEN, named after a post-war German magazine; a slang term for people in their twenties, has a sound that’s at once modern and nostalgic. Per the band, it’s '1965, 1995 and 2025 all at the same time.'" - Jax Today

Written across highways & coastlines, their latest LP 'Fate Euphoric' isn’t nostalgic, though it nods to Britpop, psych, and new wave. It sounds more like the past filtered through the noise of right now. If 'One Stop Shop'pointed out the problems of the 2020s from a first person perspective, 'Fate Euphoric' takes a bird’s-eye view, seeking comfort in the cosmic wheel that will always keep spinning. TWEN are a band in flux, and that’s the point. The van is still home, but the studio is wherever the signal feels right. The fate might be uncertain, but for now, it’s euphoric.

Fate Euphoric is available on election day, November 4, 2025 via the band's own label Twenterprises.
