Solar Twins are an English electronica duo with Joanna Stevens (vocals) and David Norland (producer/all instruments/vocals).

Solar Twins were signed by Guy Oseary at Maverick Records after playing at Viper Room. They are known for their version of Rock the Casbah, found on the soundtrack to the movie Brokedown Palace. They made one album, and split after attempting a second, thwarted by insurmountable creative differences.
