Twenty20 is comprised of four 8th graders: vocalist Hugo Carney, guitarist Ben Froman, bassist Lucas Donovan, and drummer Joey Doyle. They hail from Washington, D.C, and they like pizza, skateboarding, writing music, and girls - not necessarily in that order.
The band's growing fan base was hooked by the 2014 music video release for "Heart Thief," an original rock anthem that propelled them to performances at 9:30 Club and Hard Rock Cafe. In early 2015, the band will release a self titled EP featuring two new original songs: "Further," a brooding imagination of a world beyond love and hate, and "Waiting," an infectious power-pop classic-to-be about love and its frustrations with a driving beat and harmonies you'll soon be singing to yourself.
Formed in 2010 when Froman moved to D.C. and began looking for friends to play music, the band dubbed itself
Twenty20 for a variety of reasons - there's the obvious allusion to perfect vision, but 2020 also happens to be the year the bandmates will graduate from high school.

DJ Baby Alcatraz has helped redefine the way D.C. partygoers think about a night out dancing. Her all-vinyl record parties make people forget about requesting Top 40 hits and lose themselves in classic soul, rock 'n' roll and R&B.
The gigantic tone of Kid Congo Powers' open-tuned guitar is one of the more readily identifiable sounds in the history of underground rock. Best known for his contribution to the development of the contemporary ambient, noise, and rock guitar with The Gun Club, The Cramps, and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in the 1980s, Kid's spent the last fifteen years as a sideman (Make-Up, Mark Eitzel, Angels of Light, etc.), as a partner in Congo Norvell and Kid and Khan, a member of garage rock supergroup Knoxville Girls, and, most recently, the leader of Kid Congo Powers and the Pink Monkey Birds, who have a new release scheduled for 2016.
Get on your feet and join the Holiday Soul Stampede with DJ Baby Alcatraz and DJ Kid Congo!
