“A unique, personal music that lights up the stage with its joy and enthusiasm.” (Mason Jennings)
Shook Twins are not your average folk Trio. Sisters, Laurie and Katelyn, blend angelic twin-harmonies, beat-boxing, a wide variety of instruments and genuine humor set them apart. Kyle Volkman rounds out the trio and the sound with the upright bass. He can often be found responding to being called “ The 3rd Twin”. Touring the West Coast since February 2008, the trio is continually expanding and creating musical circuits in multiple regions and fans everywhere along the way.
Shook Twins have shared the stage with many amazing artists including Ryan Adams, Mason Jennings, Laura Veirs, The Fruit Bats, Jonatha Brooke, Michelle Shocked, JJ Gray and MoFro, Crooked Still, Scott Law, Darol Anger, Jason Webley, The BoDeans, Elephant Revival, Taarka, The Head and The Heart and many more amazing artists and bands.
The twins recently moved to Portland, OR where they consistently find inspiration in…well, everything.
“The sisters voices blend and braid with amazing clarity and depth, their guitars percolate brightly, and the intensity builds to incendiary proportions with layers of percussion gradually added to the mix.” (Spokesman Review)
