The Royce Twins are Australian based singer-songwriters from Mount Beauty, Victoria, Australia. The duo consists of twin brothers Gabriel Saalfield and Michael Saalfield. The Twins have been singing and playing music together as long as they can remember.

Gabriel and Michael Saalfield (twin brothers) were born on 14 December 1990. The twins were raised in the Australian fostercare system, after their mother died of breast cancer at the age of 8 and their father in a house fire when they were 11. They grew up in Mount Beauty, Victoria. They appeared on Australian News and Talk show The Project in 2010, talking about their experience. Michael has said "I reckon I'll be a foster carer when I'm older".

The Royce Twins played regularly at The George Hotel in Ballarat and JD's Sports Bar in Ballarat, while completing their studies in a Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science at Federation University. The brothers graduated in 2014.

The Royce Twins made an appearance on series 5 of The X Factor Australia in September 2013 performing "I won't give up" by American Singer Songwriter Jason Mraz. At the time of writing, that performance has over 9 million views on YouTube.

After successfully crowd funding their debut EP, The Royce Twins released their self-titled debut EP in 2014. The Royce Twins used the Pozible crowd funding platform.

The Royce Twins performed at a number of events including Springfest, The Royce Twins opened for Australian music icon Daryl Braithwaite in January 2014 at the Perricoota Music Festival, they performed at The Young Leaders Day in March 2014 in Melbourne, Australia, and The Royce Twins performed at the Mount Beauty Music Festival.

The Royce Twins prepared for the launch of their Debut EP after completing a photo shoot in The Blue Mountains.
