The Lodge Meets Twin Shadow


George Lewis Jr., aka Twin Shadow, is a multi-instrumentalist and singer, currently based in Brooklyn, New York. His debut full length, "Forget," is an intimate collection of songs, drawing atmospheric inspiration from his personal nostalgia. Lush arrangements of analog synthesizers, drum machines, and swelling guitars support Lewis' pop vocals as they wander through colorful melodies and vivid lyrical imagery. The album was beautifully produced and mixed by Chris Taylor (Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson, Dirty Projectors), bassist/engineer of Grizzly Bear and co-founder of Terrible Records which Twin Shadow is currently signed to. Chris Taylor has also recently produced The Morning Benders' debut album, "Big Echo," which was mastered at The Lodge by Emily Lazar and Joe LaPorta.
Twin Shadow is scheduled to play several shows in Manhattan and Brooklyn this July and August, so be sure to stop by for some great music. If you can't make the show, keep an eye out for his debut album, "Forget," available on CD and vinyl September 28, via Terrible Records.
