The Veronicas Return: Talking Magic, Revenge and the Illusion of Fame
In 2005, the Veronicas emerged with The Secret Life Of..., a promising release from two young identical twins from Brisbane. Fast forward two years and the ladies, Jessica and Lisa Origliasso, released Hook Me Up, the pop-rock album that would put them on the map internationally and land them a radio hit in the U.S. with "Untouched." The Veronicas filled the much needed void of alternative pop-stardom, eventually obtaining mega fame at a young age.
Then something happened. The twins found themselves in a contractual bind, stiffed creatively and emotionally. They disappeared, at least to American eyes, for seven years. In that time, they've been invested in self-discovery and health, exploring new sounds and new friendships. In February they released their third full-length, The Veronicas, and are prepping their first U.S. tour in almost a decade. They're ready for their next chapter, and they're hoping you'll join them. Here's Fuse's conversation with Jessica and Lisa.
