After self producing their last EP at the band's rehearsal space, they decided it was going to be their first studio recording together. "Cover Me" was recorded at ‘The Bombshelter’ in Red Lion, PA with producer Scott Gross of From Autumn to Ashes and CJ Wood.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><iframe seamless="" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/track=2789252221/size=large/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/" style="border: 0; width= 600px; height: 120px;">Cover Me by Twist & Writhe</iframe></p><p><span style="font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:18px">In 2019 Jay Stillman (bass) and Leighton McCleaf (drums), whom played together previously, answered an ad from the dueling guitar team of Alex Slagle and Ben Vardjan who had started Twist & Writhe having known each other and played off and on since they were teenagers. Starting off as an instrumental project, the formula wasn't complete until they found vocalist Arthur Nusser in 2023.</span></p><p><span style="font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:18px">Experiencing the sound, a new need to roar with this new, energetic creation evolved. This vocal addition brought forth a cultivation that flourished and accelerated a new momentum equal only to the support from the masses whom this <a href="https://twistandwrithe.bandcamp.com/"><u><strong>Twist & Writhe</strong></u></a> must act to entertain.</span></p><BR><BR><hr><center><div class="AdSpeedVisibleAd" asreq="https://g.adspeed.net/ad.php?do=js&zid=74738&oid=16882&wd=-1&ht=-1"></div></center><center><h4><b><i><a href='https://www.newjerseystage.com/advertise'>Advertise with NJ Stage for $50-$100 per month, <u>click here for info</a></u></i></h4></b></div></center><div class="mainarticle"><hr><BR>
