THE TWELVES (LIVE)

Hailing from Rio de Janeiro, The Twelves make their way to SF for a special Live performance! The band was formed by the duo Joao Miguel and Luciano Oliveira back in 2005. Their breakthrough came in July of 2007 when they remixed the track, 'Boyz' from M.I.A's sophomore album, Kala. The reworked track with an added club feel resulted in one of the most talked about remixes of 2007. The duo followed 'Boyz' with equally well received remixes for Asobi Seksu and Erlend Oye, and soon after that their 'Get Lucky' remix by New Young Pony club catapulted The Twelves alongside household names like MSTRKRFT and Who Made Who,.

The sound of the duo brings influences from many genres including Daft Punk, Justice, Royksopp, Vitalic, Simian Mobile Disco, MSTRKRFT, Clor, Cut Copy and Goldfrapp. Their live show is a unique blend of live keyboards, drum machines, mash-ups and remixing on the fly with a free-form and often improvisational groove that gets the party movin'. Join us!
