Born from a place of deep introspection, ‘My Evil Twin’ feels incredibly personal and vulnerable. A slice of power-pop prowess with a rowdy twist, the song sees talented troubadour Michael Cohen opening up his own heart with unmatched authenticity and honesty, slowly unfurling a painful tale of intense love and subsequent breakup. Music can be seen here as a form of therapy, a cathartic way to process such impactful occurrences.
Teaching himself Logic Pro, Cohen started building his artistic universe one song at a time. ‘My Evil Twin’ is the perfect evidence of that, with its nostalgic guitar riffs and the gritty, playful distortions behind it. Michael’s vocals are the perfect match for such a vibrant landscape, taking listeners by the hand with tenderness and understanding. Based in Miami and Washington, D.C., Cohen seeks to deal with unexpected rejection and heartbreak, doing so in true musical fashion.
As the talented American troubadour explains: “Within a week, I went from being the ‘great love of her life’ to someone dismissed without a word. That shock, that sense of moral whiplash, is what ‘My Evil Twin’ is about.” The song is part of Michael Cohen’s upcoming album, ‘Living in Dadeland’.
