Loved by many and loathed by just as many, much-hyped Birmingham lads The Twang say that they don’t care what detractors say about them.
Speaking to Gigwise, bassist and co-founder Jon Watkin told us that for them they don’t care what people think, they’ll just carry on as they are.
Referring to their career so far, he said: “We’re really enjoying it. People can hype us up if they want. I think we’re a bit different.
“A lot of people will hate us, but I think we’ve got good songs. The music always does the talking don’t it really?”
He continued: “We just want to have a laugh. We just want people to enjoy themselves have a bit of a party. You just don’t take it too seriously. Music is music.”
The Twang release their first single ‘Wide Awake’ through B-Unique on March 19.
