It’s been an absolute joy to witness the evolution of local indie-folk duo The Twins of Franklin. From their debut release Low in 2020, to their new gorgeous release This Life, best friends Laura Lou and Becky Shaheen share their lives through their songs. These chapters of their life, good and bad, are bravely presented and easily resonate with so many fans. My sides hurt from laughing every time we chat, and my eyes water up almost every time I see them perform. In this episode, The Twins of Franklin premiere their new song, “The Space Between A Dream.”
