Katherine and Kristen Veayo — aka The Veayo Twins — are 16-year-old identical twins from central Maine who have achieved a bit of fame in the three years of their playing live. They recently won the 2012 MAMM SLAM — Maine’s High School Rock Off — beating out 11 other bands for $1,000 in cash, recording time, gigs, studio tours and TV and radio appearances (like 92Moose, WKIT and WTOS radio). Kristen is a guitarist, songwriter and vocalist while Katherine is a drummer, keyboardist and vocalist — they have a seven-song, self-titled CD out. In a recent telephone interview they talked about that release as well as the show they’ll bring to the L/A Arts’ Dufresne Plaza in Lewiston at 6 p.m. Aug. 31.

The serendipitous moment always has its enchantments, and often occurs in lightly colored, sweetly scented ways: finding a wonderful jacket in a pile of Goodwill clothing, an ancient piece of silver with your own initials on it at a garage sale, or seeing a red-haired girl with green eyes passing you by in a store you never intended to enter.
