You Say Ah, The Twigs third CD, is the sound of sweet relief when twin sisters Laura and Linda Good weave together their trademark harmonies and quirky lyrics into modern cosmic pop. Adulterous neighbors, holy visions and flirty aliens all happily co-exist in The Twigs unusual universe on this 5-song EP. It was recorded all over the world -- from Sydney, Australia to Hollywood to New York City -- all on the sisters respective Mac G4 laptops. Guest appearances include Pete McNeal (Jem, Cake), Joe Berardi & Marc Doten (00Spy Car), Gerald Menke (Mercury Rev, Super Furry Animals), Greg Collins (Gwen Stefani, Tracy Bonham) and Dan Carlson. You Say Ah mixes distorted guitars with vintage keyboard lines and lucid mellotrons underlying The Twigs intriguing tales of envy and ecstasy.



Its no wonder an alternative edge has crept onto You Say Ah, considering their individual work with some of the hardest rock bands out there. Lindas side projects have included playing keys touring with Janes Addiction, The Mars Volta (Universal) and Lisa Marie Presley (Capitol). Laura was living and traveling around Australia and New Zealand, writing and recording as she went, collaborating with several Aussie music stars including radio darlings Lazy Susan and techno wizards b(if)tek. Yet still, the lushness of the sisters voices floats above it all in a Brian Wilson-like vocal dream.



The Twigs first two CDs, The Universe Tonight and Bring Me The Head of Eternity (Whirl-i-gig Records) were co-produced by The Twigs and fellow Beatle fan and Chicago native Johnny K (3 Doors Down, Disturbed). Several songs from both CDs have been placed on TV and in film including "It's Alright" on "Emily's Reasons Why Not" (ABC), and Love, Love, Love (Re-mix), featured in the Cruel Intentions III Soundtrack. Their cover of The Kinks All Day and All of the Night won the Grand Prize of the Shure Musical Roots Contest.
