Band Members: Twinfest is organised by the Northampton Twin Town Musicians Association, which is a Not-For-Profit Association of local musicians who work alongside our partner organisations in Germany and France, the Marburg Musikverein and Poitiers Jeunes.
Our aim is to promote the creativity of the musicians of Northampton, Poitiers and Marburg by means of reciprocal festivals where we invite musicians from the others music scene to perform alongside local acts.
By working together as musicians we are able to create Festivals which are a showcase of the creativity of each town in a way that is bigger than any of the participating acts, which in turn helps the live music scene. It also allows musicians from each town to play to foreign audiences as part of a larger event, so as to get their foot in the door to getting gigs in the other country by themselves or with a "Twin Band" at a later date.
Influences: The musicians of Northampton, Marburg and Poitiers
