Mary Chapin Carpenter – Down at the Twist and Shout
Mary Chapin Carpenter – Down at the Twist and Shout (1991)
Directed by: Jack Cole
Mary Chapin Carpenter’s 1991 hit “Down at the Twist and Shout” is a jubilant tribute to Cajun music and the joy of dancing. With infectious rhythms and spirited instrumentation provided by members of BeauSoleil, the song captures the energy of a night out at the famous Twist & Shout dance hall in Maryland. The Jack Cole-directed video brings that same energy to life with lively dance scenes and Carpenter’s engaging presence. This Grammy-winning track remains a beloved staple in her catalog and a celebration of musical fusion.
