Sounds Like
Some people say Morphine. Some people say not Morphine. Some of those professional critics out there say Portishead, Mazzy Star. We don't really sound like anyone, to be honest.
one afternoon, while soundchecking somewhere in this fine country (i think i was denver), the house soundman, who had seemed like a nice person, started getting pissy, then pissier and pissier. our soundman, john, (possibly the nicest person in the world) finally asked him what was up. "the sax player sounds just like the guy from morphine," the house guy lamented. john laughed, "it IS the sax player from morphine. and the drummer, too!" this was not the first time we had heard this. or the last. twinemen was formed after the untimely demise of morphine. we toured together as orchestra morphine for a year after mark sandman died, to support morphine's last cd, 'the night'. we started writing together, ostensibly for a colection of songs for laurie's solo cd, but after realizing that what we were effortlessly creating was quite different from anything any of us had done before, we decided to follow the trajectory and the flow and see what happened. so, we introduce ourselves to you: we are twinemen, from boston, massachusetts. we come from morphine, but we are not morphine. some people will be offended that we do not sound like morphine, some will be offended that we do. whatever. we will never be played on commercial radio. we love to play together and we love to come to your towns. have a listen, say hello. pass it on....
Hi, Hope you're fine ! Pending the new release "Melotonine" (release date coming soon), i decided to offer you a part of my best recent works in a free EP, "Cupboard Replacement", downloadable in all numeric formats with special graphic art works by Flint on Music AutOmatiK's Website : musicautomatik.com
Howdy and thanks for your enduring friendship and support. Just to let you know, your music is great and once again shows what great artists you are. On the homefront, I just added my latest song, "The Cowboy Way". I'm sure you'll feel what I did when I wrote the song. There is a side to me (and everyone, I reckon) that's hard to come to grips with and that I can't expect anyone else to understand, either. Have fun listening and let me know how you like the song.

Request it at your local radio station today. Also the CD is finally available. Visit my page to hear samples and buy it now! Also I value your opinion about what you think my next single should be so please drop me a line.
Howdy, Thanks for your friendship and the great music on your page. Just uploaded my new song "My Future Showed Up Late". It's a toe tapper about southern style karma and us good ole boys. It's got my good buddy Ray MaGee on pedal steel cookin' up a storm. Enjoy and let me know how you like it. Thanks, Dexter
Howdy, Hope everything is going well with you. I love your great sound and I'm always amazed by the superior quality, skill and craftsmanship you put into your music. Meanwhile, I'm back in the studio, working on some more original songs that reflect the old roots of country while adding some present day vibe. Keeps me on my toes analyzing and shaping the result. Luckily, I get to work with a super bunch of musicians again, that add a great amount to the final product. Be well and stay inspired. Look for new test uploads on my page in the near future and please take a moment to listen to my latest "Water". It's a tale of desperation and conflicted morals set in a Spaghetti Western. Dexter
Howdy Twinemen, Just uploaded the new song "Water" to my profile. It's a dramatic tale of conflict and compromised morals set in a spaghetti western. It begs for a video! Anyone out there interested in producing one? Have fun listening to the song and let me know what you think. Dexter

Great work, considering you are just human beings !!!! Thank you to continue after Morphine, because I was addicted to the Morphine sound. I know the Twinemen have their own identity, but I still hear this very cool sax.
Howdy from Ventura,
