There's nothing quite like a
really long hiatus to make your website seem as though it's gone
dormant to the rest of the world. Well, we're alive and kicking. Our
website was being held hostage by a glitch after our host site
changed companies. Long story short, we're back online now and the
first thing to be updated was our concerts page. In May the band's
side project called Tulsa Rock Ensemble had it's debut at
the Tulsa annual event, Mayfest. The ensemble is made up of Admiral
Twin and members of the Tulsa Symphony Orchestra. In effect, it's a
rock band with a string section. Future TRE dates will be listed at
this website on the concerts page and at
tulsarockensemble.com. Admiral Twin is currently writing new
material for various upcoming recording projects. Stay Tuned.

Well... due to very interesting
circumstances, things did not quite pan out for us at the New Music
Seminar in Los Angeles. But we do appreciate everyone who gave us
their support.

Thank you to everyone who voted
for us on ourstage.com! Our song "Aeroplane" had won the Indie Pop
channel for January, and was then competing for the Music Finals,
which we have now won, and all because of you! Today we head to Los
Angeles for another competition (see the last post). Check back for
updates...

We're excited to
announce Admiral Twin was chosen as one of the three finalists in
the www.ourstage.com NMS
Artists on the Verge competition. In addition to our online EPK
receiving loads of attention from industry professionals and A&R
folks, we'll also be traveling to the New Music Seminar in Hollywood
on February 2 where we'll find out if we've won the grand prize, a
$25,000 promotional package and a chance to play a showcase in front
of all kinds of music biz insiders and such. (And there was much
rejoicing.) We'll keep you fine folks informed of how it all goes.
Plus, casserole recipes! Stay tuned.

Happy New Year!
Some fans have informed us that they believe that this is the year
of Twenty-Twin (an obvious pun on 2010). So we'll see where their
faith and determination propels us. And in light of that affirmation
from true believers, we actually are in the midst of some real
forward progress. As ever, we are reluctant to let the cat out of
the bag, that is until we know more details. But rest assured that
there is some genuine promise on the horizon. What we can tell you
is that in addition to that little secret, we are also headed back
into the studio to begin work on a brand-new album, due out later
this year. Also going forward is the plan to do some work on the
side with members of the Tulsa Symphony Orchestra, which we
mentioned previously. Our hope is that this relationship will also
manifest itself in a track or two on the new album. The long and
grueling last decade is behind us, the slate is clean. Let's roll
the dice and see where lady luck lands us. Cheers.
