Description

The Carrivick Sisters are one of the UK's top young bluegrass and folk acts. Twins Laura and Charlotte perform their original songs and instrumentals alongside carefully chosen covers. Between them they play guitar, mandolin, fiddle, dobro, and clawhammer banjo to virtuoso standard and are rapidly building a reputation for engaging and entertaining live performances.

Growing up in South Devon, an area rich in folk lore and legends, much of their original material is inspired by their local surroundings and history. The Carrivick Sisters first started performing as a duo in 2006, originally as buskers, turning professional when they left school in 2007. In 2007 they played at Glastonbury and the following year Laura achieved 2nd place at the RockyGrass Fiddle Contest in America. Susequently they were finalists in the prestigious BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Awards 2010 and were named Band/Duo of the Year in the 2011 FATEA Awards.

As well as touring all over the UK, the Carrivick Sisters have performed at major festivals in Canada and mainland Europe and have released six CDs
