And not just any old music\, but simply amazing\, genetically-matched singing and musicianship. They quickly bring to mind the rich tradition of singing brother duets\, evoking such seminal duos as the Blue Sky Boys\, the Delmore Brothers\, and the Everly Brothers. And they take it up a notch\, because they’re not merely brothers\, but identical twins. And as musician and editor Paul Kotapish put it\, “They’re really ‘twinny’ twins.” \n\n\n\nTheir delightful repertoire spans Americana including rare fiddle tunes\, quirky novelty songs\, and swing classics\, all uniquely interpreted through their positive world view. They’ve shared their music for more than half a century\, teaching and performing at countless festivals and workshops\, and on radio and television. But delightful music is only part of the story. \n\n\n\nGreg and Jere have another unique characteristic—they are two of the happiest people you will ever meet. And their happiness is mysteriously contagious. Anyone finding themselves in close proximity to the twins\, might also find themselves caught up in a vortex of joy and optimism.  \n\n\n\nThis documentary spans their lifetime\, right up to the present day. You’ll appreciate their musical inspirations and tap into some of the secrets of their happiness. Singlers will better understand the mystical closeness of identical twins. And after it’s over\, we hope you’ll feel a little more joyful\, a bit happier. And can’t we all use a little bit more of that? \n\n\n\nVoted Audience Favorite Feature Documentary at the West Sound Film Festival! \n\n\n\nRecent reviews from audience members: \n\n\n\n“This is the absolute funniest\, most touching documentary on the planet!” \n\n\n\n“IMHO it was the most fascinating\, uplifting\, hilarious\, whimsical and deeply moving documentary ever!” \n\n\n\nMy heart is so full right now\, yet oddly it feels so much lighter than it did this morning.” URL:https://cstpdx.com/event/canote-twins/ CATEGORIES:documentary,film,music ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cstpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/TheCanoteTwinsPoster_-fullres_small-web.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240114T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240114T210000 DTSTAMP:20260525T001453 CREATED:20231127T051809Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231209T221126Z UID:10001202-1705258800-1705266000@cstpdx.com SUMMARY:Style Wars DESCRIPTION:Regarded as the indispensable document of New York Street culture of the early ’80s\, the film is record of a golden age of youthful creativity that exploded into the world from a city in crisis.
