Time for Rock...
Hailing from the vibrant, border town of Brownsville, Texas, Twin Tribes emerged in 2017 as a force to be reckoned with in the darkwave scene. Their sound, a potent blend of gothic rock, post-punk, synth-pop, and new wave, has propelled them to the forefront of the contemporary dark music landscape.
The duo, comprised of Luis Navarro (vocals, guitar, synths, drum machines) and Joel Niño, Jr. (bass, synths, vocals), bring their unique backgrounds to their music. Navarro, born in Matamoros, Mexico, and Niño from Los Fresnos, Texas, met in Brownsville, where their shared passion for music ignited.
Drawing inspiration from the iconic sounds of the 80s, Twin Tribes seamlessly weave together the moody textures of gothic rock and post-punk with the electronic flourishes of synth-pop and new wave. Echoes of The Cure and Depeche Mode are evident in their music, but they also embrace influences from the vibrant Rock en Español scene, particularly Latin American bands like Caifanes, Soda Stereo, and Size, adding a distinct, culturally rich element to their sound.
With years of touring under their belts and three albums to their name, Twin Tribes have cemented their status as a defining act in the resurgence of darkwave, captivating audiences with their powerful performances and haunting melodies.
