Press Kit
Two Timer is the raw energy of the blues at its most uncompromising. The band delivers an electric, heavy blues groove inspired by the sound of the ’60s and ’70s, run through a filter of garage grit and rock intensity. Their style has been aptly described as “grunge blues on steroids” — and it’s hard to sum it up any better.
This isn’t blues to sit through at a table. This is blues that hits you right in the chest.
On stage, Two Timer is pure, untamed energy: powerful vocals, hypnotic harmonica, a fat guitar and a pulsing bass create a sound that balances between tradition and a modern, heavier take on the genre.
The band has represented Poland three times at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, in 2015, 2016 and 2020, which places them among the leading acts of European blues.
Two Timer has played dozens of club shows in Poland and abroad, as well as renowned international festivals.
