THE BURNEY SISTERS
6.00
The Burney Sisters, comprised of sisters Emma (15), and recently joined 13-year-old sister Bella, create music with a maturity and emotional intelligence that belies their age. Emma and Bella write keen and knowing songs while also arranging for multiple instruments and structuring unique and resonant harmonies. The result is personal and penetrating music that both connects with and captivates their listener. Their soul nurturing sibling harmonies and tunes are reminiscent of The Avett Brothers, First Aid Kit, Brandi Carlile, The Staves, and Joseph.
