Twin Peaks was formed by four young Chicago natives -- vocalist/guitarist Cadien Lake James, guitarist Clay Frankel, bassist Jack Dolan, and drummer Connor Brodner -- in the early 2010s. The guys had known each other and been friends since elementary school, but only formed a band after the duo James had with his brother Hal split up so Hal could join the Smith Westerns. They began playing together near the end of high school, then went on tour during their senior year. Before heading out on the road, they had quickly and cheaply recorded an album in James' basement to sell in order to keep them in gas and beer. Titled Sunken, the album caught the ear of Autumn Tone, which issued it in the summer of 2013. After graduating, James, Dolan, and Brodner headed to Olympia to attend Evergreen College, but they decided school wasn't for them, so they swung by L.A. to get Frankel and headed back to Chicago.
Once there, they began working on a second album with producers Andrew Humphrey and Colin Croom. Taking more time to craft their sound but never losing the wild and loose feel of their live set, the album showed that the bandmembers' decision to quit school and stick together was wise. Wild Onion was issued by Grand Jury in summer 2014, just a few weeks after Twin Peaks wowed the crowd at the Pitchfork Festival with their set. More festivals, including Lollapalooza, followed amid a relentless touring schedule with multiple trips across the U.S. and forays into Canada, Mexico, the U.K., and Western Europe before their third LP, Down in Heaven, arrived in spring 2016. With Croom joining the lineup on keyboards, the album retained Twin Peaks' rough edges while drawing inspiration from the reflective tone of favorite works from the late '60s (the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, the Beatles). The following year, they delivered the double-live album Urbs in Horto, recorded over three nights at Chicago's Metro and Thalia Hall in 2016. Over the next year, the band toured and released a series of 7" singles that were then compiled on 2018's Sweet '17 Singles. Also in 2018, Frankel released an eponymous album as Grapetooth with his then-roommate Chris Bailoni (Home-Sick) that combined garage punk and new wave influences.
Twin Peaks regrouped in the studio, this time with producer Ethan Johns (Paul McCartney, Kings of Leon, Ray LaMontagne). Featuring guests such as Ohmme on backing vocals and Kyle Davis (Cage the Elephant, Evangelicals) on auxiliary percussion, Lookout Low saw release in 2019.

Shake Your Lonely
Twin Peaks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why so down?
Smokin' all your teeth brown
It's gonna be, gonna be, gonna be, gonna be good
Hey, boy
Whatchu doin'?
Drinkin' yourself to ruin
In a moment
I'll be walkin' over
You'll forget you know her
When I kiss your world apart
In a moment
I know that I'll be the
Only girl
To shake your lonely heart
To shake your lonely heart
Hey, boy
Hey, boy
Why oh why?
You're making all your girlfriends cry
It's gonna be, gonna be, gonna be, gonna be good
Hey, boy
How 'bout this?
I'll get right to the gist
It's gonna be, gonna be, gonna be, gonna be good
In a moment
I'll be walkin' over
You'll forget you know her
When I kiss your world apart
In a moment
I know that I'll be the
Only girl
To shake your lonely heart
To shake your lonely heart
To shake your lonely
To shake your lonely heart
To shake your lonely head
To shake your lonely heart
To shake your lonely
To shake your lonely heart
To shake your lonely
To shake your lonely heart
The lyrics to Twin Peaks's song Shake Your Lonely are about a person comforting a guy who is feeling down and drinking himself to ruin. The singer assures him that things will get better and that she is the only girl who can shake his lonely heart. She is offering herself as a solution to his sadness and promising that she will "kiss his world apart" and make him forget about any other girls who have hurt him. Through this song, the singer is offering a kind of escape for the guy from his loneliness and despair.
One interesting aspect of the song is the catchy melody and upbeat rhythm that contrasts with the somewhat bleak lyrics. The song's retro, garage rock sound is characteristic of Twin Peaks's style, featuring distorted guitar riffs and tambourines. The song was released in 2017, with the album "Sweet '17 Singles" and has since become a fan-favorite. It has been described as a power-pop anthem that captures the band's energetic and raw sound.
Another interesting aspect of the song is the use of repetition, particularly in the chorus, as the singer repeats the phrase "to shake your lonely heart" several times. This repetition creates a sense of urgency and emphasizes the singer's desire to comfort the guy and make him feel loved. The lyrics reveal a sense of empathy towards the guy's troubles, and the repetition in the chorus amplifies the empathetic vibe.

I love Twin Peaks. I wish they would explore this male, female harmony more.
This song and style really remind me of the Jesus and Mary Chain. Especially their 2017 release Damage and Joy.
