ThinkTwice
ThinkTwice is a lively music duo featuring Robby Layton and Teresa Penbrooke, offering a rich repertoire spanning over five decades of classic and new originals and covers. Typically their sound is full of tight vocal harmonies in acoustic rock, Americana, folk, and slightly country, with original and cover songs ranging from current eras back to the 60's. ThinkTwice genres range depending on the audience, occasion, and venue size. Their original music has been recognized in finalist categories in songwriting competitions. Robby excels as a lead guitar player and singer. Teresa joyously trades lead vocals and harmonies, and plays rhythm guitar, six-string banjo (a "banjitar") and often a cajon, stand-up snare, or other percussive instruments.
​
This duo discovered their mutual love of singing and playing while navigating the San Juan River in southern Utah in 2004. They began co-writing songs and sharing them, ultimately leading to the formation of the 5-piece band Windfall in Boulder, CO. Windfall was put on hold in 2013 when Robby, and then coincidentally one year later Teresa, were both recruited separately to North Carolina State University to pursue funded PhD’s. They re-grouped there as ThinkTwice - a reference to their duo and academic pursuits - continuing to write and perform while completing their doctorates. Returning to Colorado in 2018, they revived another band, GhostBridge, and also teamed up with Patty Jackson to form the trio The Good Schemers.
ThinkTwice continues to evolve and perform as as a creative musical force. They provide a variety of opportunities to showcase original compositions and delightful collection of inventive covers. They capitalize on multi-instrumental and vocal harmonies to add interest and sparkle to every song.
Teresa now has her home base on Coastal North Carolina and Robby splits his time in Colorado and Portland, Oregon. Both perform often together, solo, and in other bands. They travel to tour, write songs, record , and play shows around the country and in Belize during winter months. They are also the leading energy behind the Herons Haunt collaborative.
