Shook Twins

Doors 6 pm.

press release: The Portland-based indie folk group Shook Twins has released their new track “Stay Wild” via Baeble Music. “Stay Wild” is “a reverb-drenched track filled with gorgeous harmonies and retro instrumentation… reminiscent of First Aid Kit or Angel Olsen,” says Baeble.

Katelyn Shook tells Baeble:  “This song is for anyone who is stuck living a life they don’t necessarily want to be living. So much so that this current “life” is taking them away from another life they once had or they dream of having. This song is meant to inspire people to find their inner wild in order to find a way to be more free and more themselves.”  

The group emerged in 2008 with their independent debut You Can Have The Rest followed by Window and 2014’s What We Do—which garnered acclaim from USA Today and more. Organically stirring up a buzz, they engendered fandom in fellow creators such as Langhorne Slim, The Lumineers, Mason Jennings, and iconic best-selling author Neil Gaiman who claimed, “They make music that twines through your soul the way vines cover an abandoned shack in the woods.” Along the way, the full band, including Niko Slice [electric guitar, mandolin, vocals], Barra Brown [drums, vocals, drum pad], and Josh Simon [bass, vocals, electric guitar, synth], has shared bills with everyone from Ryan Adams to The Indigo Girls.
