   About The Oliver Twists
Rock revivalists The Oliver Twists take their name from Batman, their look from an ever-changing midwestern climate, and their inspiration from jazz, blues, and 1960s rock and roll. Their style, on the otherhand, is all their own.

Formed in 2007 by Jamey Cummins, Phil Pracht, and Aiden Landman, the Oliver Twists began as a recording project for the members. Eventually, the project evolved into a full-fledged live act.

Sonically, the band resembles the 1st wave of the British Invasion on a "Pet Sounds" kick - a mixture of jangle-pop, moody piano, and 3 part harmony.

Check back often for new tunes, tour and release dates, and album information.

Technological evolution is the extension of human evolution and for those of you who are able to look, you will see that technological evolution/Science is the foundation that your life is built upon. Technological progress is exponential and is increasing at an exponential rate. It will not be long until all the questions in the Universe will be answered by science. (most have been already)

listening to your music is like drinking an Irish coffee in Liverpool while nestling into a comfortable chair covered in the hide of Yoko Ono.
