...A Sound that mainly consists of percussive rhythm guitar infused with ambient lead guitar harmonies, 2wurds has created a style that pulls loosely at rock, alternative, funk and blues. Influenced greatly by such artists as Martin Sexton, Dave Matthews and Bill Withers, the style has evolved but remains anchored in its roots, taking full advantage of stylistic flexib
ility to swoon an intimate acoustic crowd; or aggressively attack a larger venue with a full electric, in your face sound.
Founded in 2002, 2wurds went on to host an acoustic showcase for four years in downtown Minneapolis’ warehouse district. Acquiring the necessary experience and musicians to move forward in the music community, they now have had the privilege of sharing their music at many local venues such as The Cabooze, Fine Line, Bunkers, Bogarts and The Basilica Block Party 2007. 2wurds has shared the stage with great local artist like Billy Johnson, The New Congress, Dessa Darling, and national acts such as G love and Special Sauce, and the Plain White T's.
2wurds consists of four members: Nathan Santos on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Dennis Kamp on lead guitar, Nate “Clearance” Cole on the bass, and Christopher Zator on drums.
