Eat Your Heart Out - Valentine's Weekend Residency with Sistastrings
Event Information
About this Event
The sound of SistaStrings can’t be described in one word. The Milwaukee based sister duo combines Classical music, R&B, and a touch of Gospel to create a unique, lush sound with a vibe. Thick string harmonies created by violin and cello, and powerful, soulful voices initiate the SistaStrings musical journey that listeners are blessed to venture on.
The classical background that the two sisters have had allows them to command their instrument at will. Between the two of them, they have performed in some of the most reputable halls, including Carnegie Hall and in their classical career they have soloed with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and the Madison Symphony Orchestra.
SistaStrings has performed with Malik Yusef, opened for Black Violin, Bone Thugs ‘N Harmony, Lupe Fiasco, BJ The Chicago Kid, and The Roots. Outreach and representation are important to these two young ladies as African American string players. The ladies are advocates for diversity in the arts and promote social justice in all that they do musically.
Vocals, Violin / Chauntee Ross
