Vancouver, BC-based Twin River is made up of Courtney Ewan (vocals/ guitar) and Andy Bishop (guitar). The duo has shared a cover of the Canadian classic – Sloan’s “The Other Man”.
“Nostalgia hit me hard during the pandemic, and I found myself squarely back in my listening habits of 15-20 years ago. This song is a perennial favourite of mine; it’s timeless. The opening guitar line is the perfect balance of light and dark; it’s moody, but sparkly – it matches the lyrical content so well. There are just so many great layers in the instrumentation of this song that are so well-placed and tasteful. It was really fun to figure it out and put it all together.
It’s about an indie-darling love triangle from the early aughts! It could be on a pop culture version of a Canadian Heritage Minute… speaking of nostalgia and all. “
