Биография

Twee are a South African indie folk duo whose music is centered around tender male/female harmonies and heartfelt acoustic songwriting. Based in Stellenbosch, Western Cape, they released a pair of Afrikaans-language albums in the latter part of the 2010s. With a name that translates simply to "Two," Twee is the work of singer/guitarist Herman Kleinhans and singer/pianist Maria Rademan. Before forming Twee, Kleinhans had already garnered some notoriety as the winner of KykNET's 2015 Afri-Vision song contest. Inspired by acts like Mumford & Sons and Coldplay, he and Rademan recorded their debut album, Piekniek vir Twee, in 2016. A mix of breezy indie folk songs and more robust pop-driven anthems, the record found some minor success, especially with the song "Ek Sweer." A follow-up album, Sirkels, arrived in 2018
