Officially formed: 2010, Minneapolis MN
Peter Stewart, Andrew Whittet, and Roger Whittet
“Do Something” [2010]
“Acoustic” [2011]
“Peter & the Twins” [2013]
True to their name, (euphemism aside) a guy named Peter and twin brothers Roger and Andy- bred from the land of Prince, and the Replacements. Peter and the Twins keep touring around the country because they don’t need to stop.
The bands’ maiden years have been coupled with strings of accomplishments; most notably: two albums with worldwide distribution, radio and television appearances at home and abroad, three ambitious tours, an exciting sponsorship from the Bierstick Company, a critically acclaimed Tour Blog, and even negotiations with N.S. Bienstock which nearly left the DIY touring band with their own nationally syndicated reality television show.
As each individual band holds itself together by a set of beliefs, Peter and the Twins decided to standardize theirs:
1) Rock and Roll Every Night- If a show falls through we will call every bar in your town until somebody lets us play Journey covers and sell T-shirts.
2) Tip your Bartenders
3) PROMTE PROMOTE PROMOTE!
4) Diversify – We learn hundreds of cover songs so that when we need to fill in a date with a cover show we’re prepared for whatever people want to hear.
5) Get people dancing – dancing is fun.
6) Have a Great Time – why else would you do this?
