The 11th episode of 11 Things!!! Over the past few years, Shook Twins (Katelyn and Laurie Shook) have been spreading their unique and infectious brand of quirky folk to steadily growing audiences. Originally from northern Idaho and now based in Portland, OR, Shook Twins have become regulars in the northwest festival circuit. Listen in as, over pedicures and burritos, they talk of their careers and being inspired by their musician "homies."  www.shooktwins.com

Diana Gameros is an alternative Latin singer/songwriter originally from Mexico and now based in Berkeley, CA. A captivating live performer and impressive guitarist, Diana is working on her debut full length album, "I Begin," due out later this year.

Emma Koenig is an actor, writer, and singer currently living in Los Angeles. This Jill of many trades turned her post-grad anxieties and other insightful meanderings into success in the blogosphere and eventually on the page with "Fuck! I'm in My Twenties." Here, Emma discusses her love of verbose lyrics, getting specific with her goals while remaining open to pursuing all facets of the arts, and plotting out fantasy scenarios with paper dolls as a child.  www.fuckiminmy20s.tumblr.com

I have known Sarah Kinlaw and Bryan Keller since middle school. Sarah and Bryan have known each other since kindergarten. Their ambient art-rock collaboration, SoftSpot, seems to have been born naturally out of two decades of friendship. Here, the Brooklyn-based musicians discuss growing up in North Carolina and coveting punk music as teens, the importance of devoting time to one's creative process, and their (surprisingly hashed-out) dream of performing in outer space. Also, delicious artisan doughnuts are consumed (Dun-well, be my sponsor?!)  www.softspot.bandcamp.com

Melissa Lusk is a Brooklyn-based musician and frontwoman of indie pop/rock band, Boy Girl Party. Listen in as Melissa talks about church and feelings of guilt over the exploit of becoming a professional musician, and lets out a couple of very ladylike burps (I do too!). www.boygirlparty.bandcamp.com
