Description
Already massive pop stars in their native Australia, 24-year-old twin sisters Lisa and Jessica Origliasso, known as The Veronicas, spent most of 2008 winning over legions of new fans while on the road with Natasha Bedingfield, Hanson, and the Jonas Brothers in support of their red-hot second album Hook Me Up. With its expert songcraft, killer harmonies, and sassy confidence, Hook Me Up is a powerful step up from The Veronicas’ debut album, The Secret Life Of … which sold more than 300,000 copies in Australia, spawned three of their five Top 10 singles, and won a slew of awards (including a coveted ARIA), making the girls international stars. While The Veronicas showed their talent for writing catchy pop-rock tunes on The Secret Life Of… (which Teen Vogue called “both sweet and viciousâ€), the girls go into hyperdrive on Hook Me Up by exchanging the debut’s pop-punk stylings for a dynamically unrestrained electro-beat. “It’s been more than two years since we wrote the first record, so our musical tastes have changed a bit,†Lisa says. “We’ve been living in Los Angeles where we got into the whole electro-pop rock scene. When it came time to write the album, we were really inspired to go in a new direction.†“We didn’t want to make a record that was the same as the first,†Jessica adds. “We definitely wanted to create a different sound for ourselves and reinvent The Veronicas. A lot has changed in our lives over the past two years. And we’ve changed quite a bit personally, so we had a lot to say.â€
