Our childhood pop icons Aly & AJ have dropped their first full-length album in 14 years. After years of singles and multiple projects, the duo released a touch of the beat gets you up on your feet gets you out and then into the sun.
After almost two years of writing sessions, a touch of the beat… is out to the world. Giving us a glimpse of the album, with their single releases “Slow Dancing,” “Listen!!!,” “Pretty Places,” “Symptom of Your Touch” and “ Don’t Need Nothing.” A collection that wholly encompasses the pair’s strong relationship as artists, songwriters and sisters as and displays their positive and upbeat attitude. It’s Aly & AJ as their truest selves, proving they’ve grown to be a true musical force. The album is 12 tracks of pure sunshine with their signature euphoric sound.
