Twen on Building an Indie Band Career Without a Label Playbook

Welcome back to You Had to Be There! I’m so excited to end the year with a special episode featuring one of my all-time favorite bands, Twen. I’m joined by Jane and Ian to talk about their DIY approach in everything they do, from writing songs to touring across the country, and what it’s taken to find real success on their own terms.Be sure to check out the playlist Jane and Ian curated below, alongside this episode in the show notes. You can also follow Twen at the links I’ve included. Thanks so much for listening, and I’ll see you in 2026.Twen's PlaylistTwen YouTubeTwen IG You Had to Be There IG
