The Twang Biography

The Twang are an indie rock band from Birmingham, England, formed in 2001. The band garnered national acclaim when the influential NME magazine produced an article on music acts (which also featured fellow Midlanders Ripchord and The Enemy) in the West Midlands, and has led to band coming second in the BBC News website's Sound of 2007 poll.

The band's debut single, "Wide Awake", was released March 19, 2007, with their debut album Love It When I Feel Like This (released on June 4, 2007) being produced by Gavin Monaghan, known for his work with Editors, Ocean Colour Scene, Robert Plant, Scott Matthews and The Holloways. "Wide Awake" was produced at The Magic Garden Studio, in Wolverhampton, assisted by Gazz Rogers. "Wide Awake" had lots of play across national and local radio stations.

The Twang's second album, Jewellery Quarter, was released 3 August 2009 and reached #20 on the UK album chart.
