Grimm Twins are a band from Macclesfield, England (branded as the least-cultured place in Britain in the 2005 State Of The Nation Report) home of Joy Division, Mr. Scruff, the infamous 90's Johnny Marr produced Britpop band Marion and the rudest, crudest & lewdest band of all time The Macc Lads.
 
Having formed in 2018 with twins Harry (Vocals, Guitar) & Joe Ward (Drums) Tilly Morris (Synthesizers, Keyboards) Will Taylor (Bass Guitar) & George Cole (Lead Guitar) They played their first live show at the Manchester School of Art, to raise funds for frontman Harry Ward and his fellow student’s degree shows. 

The band have since opened for the likes of Fujiya & Miyagi, Tim Burgess & Cabbage. 

Their debut single ‘I Don’t Care’ (released via the Bleichpop Corporation Ltd.) was given Radio X’s 'X-POSURE Big One’ by John Kennedy, while Steve Lamacq played the single on his BBC Radio 6 Music show.

Three piece power trio Jemma Freeman and The Cosmic Something are joyous outsiders, the songs either overtly or indirectly demonstrate solidarity with others that identify with feeling off kilter with the rest of the universe.
An introspective journey through psychedelic glam-rock nightmares, woozy flows of self-discovery and beguiling lyrics delivered with subtlety and intensity. Jem is your guide in this strange country, illuminating a path for you, in reality they’re as lost as the listener. In this hinterland, thoughts tumble on top of each other and the shadows cast by their own images overwhelm

Following from their Italian tour and sold out 2019 album The Cosmic Something are currently back in the studio putting the finishing touches to their hotly anticipated (Covid delayed) second full length LP due for release Spring 2022.

Jem is proudly Autistic and nonbinary. They can be heard as the guitarist and songwriter in Bella Union band Landshapes, and on tracks by Lost Horizons, Fran Lobo, Your Heterosexual Violence

“Jemma’s solo material adds a fizzing energy and almost glam-stomp to proceedings, creating a sound that flips rapidly between lush guitar work and rapid fire energy, all topped by Jemma’s sonorous vocal, part Kate Jackson part PJ Harvey.” - For The Rabbits
“Jemma Freeman & The Cosmic Something bring an artful mix of glam rock theatrics, spacious psych explorations and crunchy earl-PJ Harvey style alt rock.” - Joyzine
