ARTIST OF THE WEEK: No.435 - Oslo Twins

After originally introducing themselves with a flurry of initial offerings in recent years, Bristol-born outfit Oslo Twins have now made their eagerly-awaited return to deliver the dreamy new single 'Breath'.

Now signed to Fascination Street Records, a new label founded by acclaimed producer Ali Chant (Yard Act, Perfume Genius, Aldous Harding, Katy J Pearson) in partnership with Bristol's Factory Studios, Oslo Twin's latest gem makes for a beautifully rich and endearing listen. Channelling a wistful dream-pop energy and blending it with notable trip-hop-inspired elements gives it a wonderfully distinctive direction indicative of the band's overall sound to date.

Speaking about 'Breath', the group's vocalist and songwriter Claudia Vulliamy said, “For us, Breath is a very nocturnal song about feeling cut off from the world."

While Eric Davies added, “Breath is an attempt to embody how unrequited love feels. I wrote it after having a panic attack, so it’s about that as well - an expression of panic in the style of a love song. There’s a sort of dry irony about it.”

'Breath' is set to feature on Oslo Twins' debut EP, which is set to land later this year, and you can watch the new video for it in the player below.
