WE USED TO BE CALLED AID. NOW WE'RE TWIN CATS

Joseph Murphy has found himself a new home in the city of Chicago, Illinois, where he is now allowed the opportunity to focus on his band full time. With humble beginnings under the name Aid, he has decided that, since this band feels brand new, a new name was necessary: Twin Cats. He began writing music as an outlet for creativity, and has expanded the breadth of his sound over the course of several self-released records. In the forthcoming album, the sound of the city folds its arms around his music, as new instruments, time signatures and other explorations appear as strokes of light across the record. Joseph's honesty and invitation for self-exploration, perhaps the most distinguishing features in his songwriting, are as pervasive as ever on the new release, as are his newfound love for the city and the love of making music itself. The release of Twin Cats will be followed by two months of touring, spanning almost the entire country.
