Description
On Saturday, June 9th, the Shook Twins, originally from Sandpoint Idaho but recent transplants to Portland, OR romp onto the Studio 55 Marin stage! Expect the unexpected with identical twins, Laurie Shook (vocals, banjo, percussion and beat-boxing), Katelyn Shook (vocals, guitar and mandolin) and the “third twin," Kyle Volkman on bass.The Shook Twins intertwine gorgeous “twin” harmonies with an eclectic and eccentric blend of folk, roots, pop and fun. But don’t be fooled. The Shook Twins are not your average folk trio. They have a few tricks up their sleeves. Laurie may drop a beatbox in the middle of a song, while Katelyn plays the guitar, glockenspiel, mandolin, and sings into a telephone and bocks like a chicken. Laurie plays wah-wah Banjo and loops various melodies and beats to make it sound like more than just two identical twin sisters. Meanwhile Kyle lays down the groove adding resonant bass lines to the mix. Playful, warm and lighthearted, the Shook Twins percolate infectious radiant energy into their shows!
Opening for the Shook Twins is the "Americali" duo Melody Walker & Jacob Groopman whose fusion of literacy and musicianship blend together an eclectic harmony of voice and instruments.
