?Compelling, lovely, stirring, and tantalisingly close to beauty? (The New York Times).
We're excited to announce that New York's The Chapin Sisters are returning to the UK for the first time since 2015 in support of their first new music since their Dolphins collaboration with Cass McCombs in 2018.
Masters of so-called blood harmony, The Chapin Sisters have garnered critical acclaim since their first recordings in 2005. Moving seamlessly between their own deftly crafted songs, familiar country classics, pop covers and traditional folk, they forged a distinctive musical imprint and carry on a proud musical legacy.
Father Tom Chapin is a Grammy-winning singer/songwriter, legendary late Uncle Harry Chapin was a musical artist and activist best known for his 1974 #1 hit Cat?s in the Cradle, and Grandfather Jim Chapin was an esteemed jazz drummer and author of seminal drum instructional books.
Raised in Hudson Valley, the sisters started singing professionally at ages 6 and 8 on their father Tom?s ground-breaking family recording Family Tree.
Through the last decade they have released 4 full-length albums, and 3 EP?s, most recently 2017?s critically acclaimed Ferry Boat EP and have toured the world multiple times on their own, and twice singing in the band She & Him and other artists as backup singers.
They are currently at work on a new album.
Opening for The Chapin's are The Ocelots (24 year old twins Brandon and Ashley Watson). Formerly based in Ireland, now in Leipzig, Germany, the brothers have crafted their song writing and musical experience together to produce a forceful blend of rich harmonies and bare, raw acoustic folk. Their music perfectly embodies the breezy effortlessness of early Bob Dylan, and Simon & Garfunkel and has earned them over 1.5 Million listens on Spotify.
