About the Episode (Episode 75)
Nashville’s British Gypsy: Twinnie on Authenticity and the "Happy Hour" Era
Twinnie is a creative force who refuses to be pinned down. Originally from York, England, the former musical theater star and actress—known for roles in Hollyoaks and West End productions—has traded the screen for the songwriting rooms of Nashville. With a background as a traveler, she brings a unique international perspective to country music, viewing the genre as a vessel for "telling your truth" rather than a rigid set of sonic rules.
Redefining Country Music Through Authenticity
Twinnie’s approach to music is built on a foundation of bravery. She looks to icons like Shania Twain and Beyoncé as examples of artists who expanded the genre’s borders by remaining steadfast in their own vision. "I think authenticity is the highest vibration," she notes, dismissing the industry’s desire to fit artists into pre-existing molds. For Twinnie, being an outsider in Nashville isn't a hurdle; it’s a superpower that allows her to blend banjo-laden choruses with dance-heavy pop influences.
From "Sad Girl" to "Happy Hour"
Following her massive 22-song independent project, Something We Used to Say, which captured the heavy emotional toll of a decade-long relationship ending, Twinnie is ready to change the frequency. Her latest single, "Worst Kind of Crush," signals a transition into her Happy Hour EP. After years of processing trauma through song, she’s issued a mandate to her co-writers: "No more sad songs". She is now focused on making people move, declaring, "I feel completely free. I just wanna dance".
Navigating Life as a "Truth Seeker"
Twinnie operates from a place of deep curiosity, particularly regarding the human need for connection. Whether discussing the complexities of dating or the "masculine energy" required to manage an independent career, she remains a staunch advocate for depth over "surface-level bullshit". Despite the chaos of the modern industry, she remains focused on her legacy, hoping to prove to her six-year-old self that "you can dream and you can do it".
