About Wondertwins

Billy and Bobby McClain are identical twins who grew up in Boston, Massachusetts in the 70s. Over the years, The Wondertwins have created a distinctive style with the technical facility of hip hop, the sophistication of the glory days of the Cotton Club, the flash of Rat Pack era Las Vegas, and elements of vaudeville, robot, tap, and mime. Billy and Bobby also work in the Boston Public School system, entering their 19th year of working as advisors and teaching dance.

Their dance career started on a very small stage at the age of 6, performing for family members at cookouts, but has expanded to performing all over the world. At age 10 they were asked to join Boston’s first professional street dance crew, The Funk Affects. During this time they opened up for some of the biggest names in hip-hop history; Run DMC, LL Cool J, KRS One, and Afrika Bambaataa, to name a few.

After 7 years with the crew, Billy and Bobby branched off to become “The Wondertwins.” The Wondertwins have had many notable accomplishments including Bobby Brown’s “Don’t Be Cruel” US/UK tour, Apollonia’s (Purple Rain) UK tour. They were the opening act for EPMD, Public Enemy, and Queen Latifah. They have also appeared on television shows Good Day New York, Evening Magazine, and The Jenny Jones Show. Additionally, they have performed numerous times at the Apollo Theater.
