Биография

Hailing from the forest of the great Pacific Northwest, the three piece band known as Twistur has been quietly stirring up a concoction of heavy hitting, masterfully crafted works since they assembled forces while in the quarantine of 2020. Fronting the group is guitar player/singer/songwriter Santino Olguin-Vazquez (sighr), using their inability to stop writing music to constantly push the group forward, balancing elegance with harsh and sludgey riffs. Acting as the bones and muscle of the group is bassist Carson Nitta, and drummer Gabriel Rosenfield, who have forged their bottomless pocket after years of playing together. United as one, they create Twisturs vital punch, laying the foundation for melancholy, curious, and satisfying melodies. The group established themselves in the Portland music scene following their debut release “Illgetimo” in 2021, and since then have worked with local saxophonist Rij Dorfman, and poet Fariah Muhammad on their most recent works. Returning to their original three piece orientation, the group has returned to the cave to cook up their first studio album, slowly but surley blending into new.
