Biography

Twee is a British Singer-Songwriter, Actress and Screenwriter. Twee's original musical alchemy of deeply-felt lyrics of pop, r&b and soul traces back to her multi-cultural roots in Manchester and London UK, where she began writing and performing at age 15.

At present Twee is working on a new album with a Grammy winning music producer, and is also developing several Film and TV projects of her own along with landing several new roles in upcoming Films and TV.

While studying Music and Drama at College in Manchester UK, Twee began recording both in-studio and performing live, which led to a development deal with cool indie music label Deconstruction and to collaborations with the likes of John McLaughlin (Kylie). Soon thereafter, Twee moved to London, where her vivid and personal songwriting and vocal style led to a featured appearance at the renown Glastonbury Festival. Her original track 'Fantasy', which she wrote and performed, was also featured on the successful Glastonbury Unsigned compilation

Twee's distinctive and creative fused sound, led to her writing and recording collaboration with Diesel Music winners 'The Reluctants", an urban-oriented collective similar to Black Eyed Peas, with Twee as lead singer, performed at a number of key live venues throughout the UK. During her time in London, Twee also was discovered by a major UK talent agency and was subsequently cast in starring and featured roles in a number of pop videos for top British acts such as Craig David & Sting, KG, and Lamar, among others.

Her singular style, look and sensibility, as well as burgeoning acting talent, also led to parts in various short films and a role in the feature film 'Stormbreaker', which was released in the UK and Europe in 2006.

Twee wrote and recorded her first independent album, which she executive produced with the talented producing/ writing team Rux Music, who have worked with Eric Clapton, Peaches Geldof, Pop Idol winners in Germany and other emerging acts. The album, comprised of Twee's evolving and eclectic sound, features a number of tracks which received attention and acclaim throughout the industry and also the film world.

One of the original tracks from the album, the emotive and moving ballad 'To Let Go', was selected as a featured song for "Nothing Like the Holidays", a major feature film produced by the creative team behind the hits "Barbershop" and "Soul Food" and directed by award-winning indie filmmaker Alfredo De Villa. The movie, starring John Leguizamo (Moulin Rouge, Romeo and Juliet, Carlito's Way), Alfred Molina (Spiderman 2, The Da Vinci Code) and Debra Messing (Will & Grace, The Women), centers around a typical American family during Christmas...only there's nothing typical about them! The film was released worldwide in December 2008. The movie also featured another original song from Twee titled "Certified Crazy," an inspired urban track. Both of Twee's tracks are also featured in the movie's soundtrack, released by Universal Music, and was also included as a special bonus in the DVD of the film, which was released in the fall of 2009.

In addition to the movie, Twee's music was featured on two national UK commercials. The video of Twee's original track "SomeKindaHero", which she wrote and performs, appeared on the SlingBox commercial for a period of three months in the UK during 2009 and was also licensed for use in a national spot for Tesco, the nationwide UK retailer.

The video of Twee's "SomeKindaHero" was produced in London by Firecracker Films, an award-winning British film and documentary group that has done major commissions for the BBC, Channel 4 and others.

In 2008, Twee moved to Los Angeles and worked on songs with established writer/producer Stewart Cararas, who has collaborated with Enrique Iglesias and JoJo. Twee has also worked on songs with producer Big John, whose credits include Ludacris and Macy Gray.
