| Three young sisters blend in heavenly harmony
and playing mandolin, fiddle and dobro.
They are also joined by talented collaborators
on guitar and bass. The music has roots deep
in bluegrass Appalachia, and branches growing
ever upward and outward, towards parts
yet unknown. Early signs were clear, when
the ensemble from Calhoun, Georgia, won a
Prairie Home Companion talent contest. After
that Rebecca won Merlefest’s mandolin
contest as its youngest contestant and first
female. But it is harmony, rather than competition,
that most distinguishes the group.
Whether performing their original compositions
or re-envisioning an old standard, the
Lovell Sisters Band blends as only the classic
ensembles can. They provide a breath of
fresh air and a sense of reassurance, that the
music will be in good hands as it gets passed
on to the next generation. |
