Heavenly harmonies and - between songs - banter that can border on the hellishly humorous. Those are the peaks of listening to Twin Peaks. And listen you must! - Winnipeg Free Press
Twin Peaks is poised to become one of the most interesting and dynamic faces of British Columbia folk, and Canadian music in general. - Caledonia Courier
They take traditional country and pass it through a modern indie folk filter, coming up with a sound that really is all their own. - BC Musician Magazine
Go see them in an intimate performance while you can, once the word gets out about this talented young duo you’ll wish you had. Go see them! - Doug Cox
The melodies of Twin Peaks are grounded by intuitive chemistry and intricate vocals, layered with endearing interplay between ukulele and acoustic guitar. They’ve got the chops to be contemporaries with folk darlings Wild Child, Shovels & Rope, and Sweet Alibi. - Walleye Magazine

Bio
You don’t have to listen long to grasp the beauty in the blended voices of Western Canadian Music Award winning folk/roots duo Twin Peaks (Naomi Shore and Lindsay Pratt). But when you experience their live show you’ll realize that their music is about something much more captivating than just a catalogue of clever songs. It’s the expression of a rare kind of harmony that exists between their spirits – that’s what makes Twin Peaks so infectious and unforgettable.
Their heartfelt songs open a door and invite you in to take a glimpse at what it might be like to live and love in their remote Northern home of Fort St. John, BC, and to imagine the adventures you could have touring tirelessly back and forth across the country. Dreamy melodies and mighty choruses flow seamlessly throughout their graceful ballads and persuasive grooves; each one casting a charmingly subtle golden-age-of-country and classic-pop afterglow. Perhaps what makes it all so welcoming is the duo’s unpretentious wit and refreshingly honest stage banter. They make you feel like you’ve finally been reunited with a long-lost friend.
From the Vancouver Island Music Fest to the Winnipeg Folk Festival and at a countless array of festivals, clubs and other venues in between, Twin Peaks continue to steal fans’ hearts everywhere they go. In 2012 they earned a top-ten spot in CBC Radio 3’s Tracks on Tracks contest, and in 2014 the group rose to the national finals in the CBC Searchlight contest. They’ve taken home a Vancouver Island Music Award for BC Wide Artist of the Year, and both of their albums have been nominated for Western Canadian Music Awards. In 2015 their album, Trouble, won the Western Canadian Music Award for Roots Duo/Group Recording of the Year.
