Episode 457: Twin Shadow

By his own admission, George Lewis Jr. makes too much music. He describes it like an addition — referencing a folder on his desktop started in late 2019 with 150 song he confesses no one will likely ever hear.

Of course, there’s plenty has shared, as a producer, songwriter and, most notably, as Twin Shadow. After a move to Brooklyn, the project began in earnest with 2010’s release of Forget, which put Lewis on the map with a unique stamp on the synth-pop genre.

Twin Shadow has release three additional LPs, culminating with 2018’s Caer, a more somber approach penned as the musician recovered from a bus accident that left him temporarily unable to play.

In July, Twin Shadow will deliver its fifth self-titled LP, which finds Lewis returning to some surprising roots for a joyous return to form.
