Twin Sister - Bad Street
And here’s something different but who said that there is anything wrong with infectious and, let’s not be afraid of this epithet, c-a-t-c-h-y summer hits. Especially if they are immaculately crafted.
I remember very clearly when I became aware of the Brooklyn-based band Twin Sister. It was “introduced” to me by a fellow Brooklynite one night at one of the Amsterdam’s finest bars back in 2010. What a precious piece of recommendation. As much as I don’t like the idea of devoting all the attention to the “cute female singer”, Andrea Estella is just too special. She is irresistibly adorable in the least annoying way which doesn’t make you want to strangle this pile of cuteness.
Andrea’s well executed whimsical ensemble seems genuine and effortless. And so is this beautiful video. Make no mistake, this bunch of cool kids are not just randomly crashing a Hispanic family fiesta. The clip was shot at Andrea’s family house in Long Island with a generous participation of friends and relatives. Everyone is having a blast with all the swimming, the food, the dancing and the ever so popular piñata. It is truly admirable how there are still people capable of making sincere and touching clips that wouldn’t make you cringe for a second. And what about the little girl’s face when she sees all the birthday gifts? Priceless.
