McTwist formed in summer of 2007, sharing a love of music, performing, road trips, sports and video games. The foursome is comprised of childhood friends who developed their craft by playing in various rock bands in the Maryland area. This experience during their formative years enabled the band to gain valuable stage experience while experimenting with a wide variety sounds. McTwist loves to put on a show. Their mix of humor and music is present in everything they do. Since their inception, McTwist has developed an unyielding work ethic, an unmistakable sound, and a dedicated fan base.
With the release of their debut album, Amateur Hour, McTwist has created a niche in the powerful Maryland and Northern Virginia music scenes. The album is an exemplar of what makes McTwist distinctive: powerful guitar, heartfelt lyricism, and a creative rhythm section. They play a brand of rock that is dedicated to being true to their wide-ranging influences, drawing from the genres of pop rock, punk, alternative rock, acoustic rock and surf rock. McTwist is as comfortable sweating and jumping through a two hour electric performance, as they are entering into a songwriter’s circle and completely stripping down their music. This kind of versatility fuels their undying passion.
