Vancouver indie folk quintet Twin River have just released their new EP Rough Gold on Light Organ Records and they're offering a free stream of it on their Soundcloud.

"To me, the most impressive songwriter is one who is able to communicate a life story within 3 minutes," singer Courtney Ewan said in a statement. She's a veteran of the Vancouver music scene along with co-singer Andy Bishop. Between the two of them, they're in a myriad of bands including Red Cedar, Yukon Blonde, Slim Fathers and White Ash Falls.

Though it initially started life as a duo, Twin River is now a full band rounded out by Rebecca Gray (Chains of Love), Malcolm Jack (Sun Wizard/Capitol 6), and Dustin Bromley (Pleasure Cruise, Keep Tidy). They've opened for big name acts such as Daniel, Fred and Julie.

They recorded the four-song EP with  Malcolm Jack from Sun Wizard.
