Back in January, I got a chance to talk with Twin Lakes before a gig at Caydence Coffee and Records. The band mentioned they were going in a bit of a different direction on the new material during the conversation, and I was interested to hear what that meant for the band. Over the weekend, Twin Lakes finally gave us an answer with their gritty new song "The Sun Always Rises."
The new single welcomes the addition of electric guitars and a straight-ahead folk-rock sound. "The Sun Always Rises" feels at home as a natural companion to 2018 Twin Lakes debut EP Stag. The band's trademark rhythmic guitar riffs have been delegated to the song's bridge where it builds to an anthemic climax, and unlike Stag where whole songs were based around these riffs, it anchors the song and teases the listener.
Along with the song, the band has released their first music video, shot by Nathan Nelson of Treedome Productions. It depicts frontman Robert Baune caught between moments of seduction and torture with band performances spliced throughout.
