Official Band Stuff

So...a few of us, Jeff and Amy, decided to head to the tattoo parlor after a show one night to see a man about a tattoo and nose piercing. After some thought about what exactly was wanted Jeff ponied up to the parlor chair to get his "talent" symbol tattoo. Amy repierced her nose in what was like record time for the job. They both came out happy campers and Steve and April cheered them on. April is now the only member of the band without a tattoo.

ABCs on CMT

As most of you know...we went to Nashville in January for the "CAN YOU DUET?" tryout for a show on CMT. While we were there we were interviewed by a reporter with CMT.....thanks to RANDY. We recently found that we made the "cut" of interviews.

The show airs on the 14th after the CMT awards on CMT. Make sure you look for us.

Birthday extravaganza....Red Carpet

Watch out paparazzi...we have some new celebs in town. Our little cousin Ana turned 7 and this year her birthday party was one for the tabloids. They had a red carpet walk with live performances by some A-list musicians. I'm thinking this birthday party should be repeated next year....and Ana isn't going to complain in that department. So we had to step up our game and prepare to be adored by a bunch of 7 year olds.

Just like the celebs prepare for the big walk on the ol' red carpet.... Ana did her own preperation to look fabulous.

All in all we had such a blast and we got to spend a weekend with the family so that's always an added bonus.

A BIG SPECIAL THANKS TO THE APRIL FOR TAKING THE PICS!!

It's here

Alrighty...all our time spent traveling back and forth from Dallas to Austin to record has paid off. We have one song complete and it is posted to our myspace page. Check it out.

The Twins (& Chris)

Back into the Studio

We went into the "studio" last weekend in Austin with Chris Hawkes (owner of One Road Studio) to record some original tunes and another. We had a blast last weekend watching our songs and lyrics come to life. Chris added guitar and the drummer will add his part tomorrow.....and then comes the bass and electric guitar and possibly the FIDDLE...oh ya, I mean we are a country duo. So we are going back this weekend to record FINAL VOCALS.....It's kinda nerve-wracking in the process...making sure we don't lose our voices and stay healthy but definately worth it.

With this "demo" we are going to post the songs to our myspace page to start getting recognition with our sound and such and then we'd like to form a small band to start gigging with. We currently have 2 shows in the works for May if we have band members to perform with. So we'll do some originals and mostly covers. We love reguests so if you'd like to hear us sing something specific please don't hesitate to ask.

Check in soon for sounds from the The Rankin Twins at www.myspace.com/therankintwins.
