Twiins (stylized as TWiiNS) is a Slovak pop duo consisting of twin sisters Daniela and Veronika Nízlová. They were born on 15 May 1986 in Hronský Beňadik. They represented Slovakia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 with the song "I'm Still Alive".

History

Twiins were background singers and dancers for Tereza Kerndlová, the Czech entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2008. In January 2010, the duo covered "Boys (Summertime Love)" under the title Boys, Boys, Boys featuring Carlprit, originally by Sabrina Salerno.

Twiins released "One Night Stand" featuring Flo Rida in 2012. They performed during his shows in Germany and Miami, Florida.

Twiins represented Slovakia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 with their song, "I'm Still Alive", which failed to qualify for the final. They gave Slovakia their best result since entering the competition again in 2009. The song was co-written and produced by Bryan Todd. The song peaked at number 18 in Slovakia.
