Nova Twins

Nova Twins are an alternative/punk rock duo, formed in London, England, consisting of vocalist-guitarist Amy Love and bassist Georgia South. Touring and recording with them on drums is session drummer Jake Woodward. Both Love and South are childhood friends and have both been in similar bands before forming Nova Twins in 2014, originally under the name "BRAATS".

The first song they released as BRAATS is "Bad Bitches", while the first song they released under "Nova Twins" is "Bassline Bitch", in 2015. The duo subsequently signed a deal with an independent record label Robotunes, releasing their first self-titled EP in 2016. In 2017, Nova Twins went on to support Prophets of Rage, gaining support by Tom Morello, who said that they're "the best band you've never heard of". Since then, the duo supported bands Wolf Alice, Skunk Anansie, Enter Shikari, Little Simz, Black Honey and Dream Wife.

In 2017 and 2018, the band released singles "Thelma & Louise", "Mood Swings", "Hit Girl" and "Lose Your Head". After going off of the European and U.S. tour, the band went into the studio to record their debut LP. In 2019, Nova Twins went on a tour to support Fever 333 and, again, Prophets of Rage. The same year, they signed to Fever 333's label, Wreckords Crew. Their album, "Who Are the Girls?", was released in February of 2020. The same year, the band won a Heaby Music Award for Best UK Breakthrough Band.

During the pandemic, Nova Twins worked on their second album, called "Supernova", which was released in 2022, with the LP itself making it on the shortlist for the 2022 Mercury Prize.

Nova Twins are set to support Muse on the Will of the People World Tour during the autumn idoor arena leg, in Dublin's 3 Arena on September 27th, Manchester's AO Arena on September 29th, and London's O2 Arena on October 1st and 2nd.
