The Shining Twins

For the past year, The Shining Twins’ Alex Weiss and Marisa Kreiss have been terrorizing the NYC music scene with their infectious pop-punk songs and raucous live performances. The duo (plus guitarist Xan Aird) pick up where bands like The Slits and Hole left off, writing defiant, honest lyrics that remind us that not all girls are interested in falling in love—some just want to have fun, remember? Even though they’ve only recently learned to play their instruments, the girls have honed their skills while playing everywhere from dive bars in Brooklyn to venues in Tokyo and Paris, earning the adoration of musicians like Mark Ronson, Adam Green and Albert Hammond Jr. along the way.
