Twinemen

From the ashes of Morphine came Twinemen, a trio also boasting singer/songwriter Laurie Sargent. The vocalist began her career fronting the short-lived mid-'80s act Face to Face before spending a few years as a solo artist in the late '90s. She adds her experience to that of Billy Conway and Dana Colley, the former drummer and saxophonist, respectively, for Morphine, who disbanded in 1999 after the death of vocalist Mark Sandman. The three began performing in the Boston area, maintaining a residency at the Lizard Lounge, before teaming with Hi-N-Dry to release its self-titled debut album in 2002.
