The Green Sisters:
Growing up on a farm, the four sisters spent many hours singing to pass the time, and in 2015 they formed The Green Sisters to keep the music and love alive. Their harmonies blend with ease over simple melodies on acoustic instruments (which they often swap amongst themselves). Selections range in genre and age from 1950’s barbershop, to folk, Celtic, old-timey, and today’s originals. The Green Sisters are
-
Melody Green, vocals, mandolin, guitar
-
Betsy Green, vocals, fiddle, banjo
-
Brie Green, vocals, fiddle, upright bass, guitar
-
