"Press 1"

Twin Cam flat-out rocks. There are poppy overtones, but the emphasis is on the power. Melody, deft musicianship and clever (but not cute) tongue-in-cheek lyrics dominate the album. They've got teeth and claws, and they're not shy about baring them when called for. - Columbus Alive


"Press 2"

...Twin cam knows how to write a really good pop-punk song... - The Other Paper


"Press 3"

...Twin Cam has learned to harness that unabashed energy and found their voice as a trio. And it's loud! - IndieMusic.com

Bio

This Columbus, Ohio trio emerged onto the scene in 2002 with their forceful and direct brand of pop rock. Mike Sammons (vocals, drums), Mark Borror (guitar, vocals), and Chad Scholtisek (bass, vocals) first joined up in the spring of 2000 in their native Columbus Ohio.

Early success with demo material earned them a spot on the Vans Warped Tour in both 2001 and 2002, as well as recognition as one of Rolling Rock's Unsigned Bands for their Town Fair in 2001.

Through countless touring and demo sessions, the trio cut their first full-length in the summer of 2002, Stealing Souvenirs. With primary tracks recorded in 2 days at Schwab Studios in Columbus, the band released the album on independent label Striped Ape Records in October 2002. A roaring blend of early 90's power and new wave 80's pop, the album's charged-up riffs and melodic lyric patterns were just what fans were looking for.

From Souvenirs, the single "Territories and Boundaries" made it's way onto Cringe.com's "Best of" Compilation for 2003. "Wonderdays" was featured on the band's own Budweiser True Music Live radio commercial airing throughout Ohio.

Twin Cam has had the fortune of playing with Unwritten Law, Mest, Apollo Sunshine, Less Than Jake, Rancid, Blondie, Oleander, Joan Jett, Student Rick, The Booda Velvets, Rainer Maria, and Ultimate Fakebook.
