The Twang is an Indie-rock band from Birmingham, UK, known for their blend of big guitars and emotional Brit-pop vibes mixed with a dance-friendly groove. The band members include Phil Etheridge and Martin Saunders on vocals, Jon Watkin on bass, Stu Hartland on guitar, and Matthew Clinton on drums.

The story of The Twang began in 2004 when they formed as Neon Twang. They were inspired by bands like Oasis and the Streets, as well as the Madchester sound of acts like Happy Mondays. Their goal was simple to make guitar-based rock music that was both melodic and straightforward.

Neon Twang gained a reputation for their rowdy live performances, but this also led to some trouble with violence at their shows. To distance themselves from this negative image, they shortened their name to The Twang.

In 2006, The band caught the attention of the UK music press when writers like James Jam and DJs like Edith Bowman were blown away by their Birmingham show. This helped them secure a record deal with B-Unique Recordings.

Their first single, Wide Awake, and their second, Either Way, reached the UK Top 20. Their debut album, Love It When I Feel Like This, dropped in 2007.

The band's journey continued with their second album, Jewellery Quarter, in 2009, produced by Youth. They explored new territory with 10:20 in 2012 and revisited their roots with Neontwang in 2014.

Over the years, they released several EPs, including Guapa in 2011 and Amsterdam in 2020. Their fifth album, If Confronted Just Go Mad, was released in 2019, featuring two new female vocalists and collaborations with Mint Royale.


Throughout their career, the band has shown their ability to evolve while staying true to their roots. With catchy tunes and a melodic approach to music.
