Today we’d like to introduce you to Luis Navarro and Joel Nino Jr.
Twin Tribes is a Dark Synth / Post Punk duo based in Brownsville, Texas. Formed by Luis Navarro (vocals, guitar, synth, drum machines) and Joel Niño, Jr. (bass, synth, vocals) in 2017. The band gathers their influences from the period of the dark ’80s. Dark Wave, Post-Punk and Cold Wave are only a couple of genres that the band summons using analog synthesizers and drum machines. Dark melodic sounds, lyrics of the undead, the occult, and parallel universes are what conjure Twin Tribes.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc. – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
It hasn’t been a smooth road completely. Unfortunately, we weren’t that lucky on the road and had all our band money stolen at an airport in South Texas. This was very difficult for us because that is the money we were going to use to tour. Luckily we counted with the help of fans that contributed to a go fund me that we set up for people to help out if possible. We found out how much support we have because in less than a week, we were able to reach our goal and ended up touring.
So, what’s next? Any big plans?
At the moment we’re recording our second album and will be releasing this fall.
