Menage a Twang is a Brooklyn-based indie outfit that blends lovely three part harmonies with razor sharp wit, acoustic guitars with an anti depressant pill bottle shaker, and camp irony with a genuine love for all things country music. Whether Emily Moore, Jessica Del Vecchio, and Rachel Levy are lamenting a soul-sucking day job, cursing their tiny shared studio apartment, celebrating a successful one night stand, or calling friends out on their secret conservative side, the Menage’s songs will move you. Or make you want to move out of the metropolitan area.
