“This is absurdly wonderful - these Stockholm sisters turn Americana on its head!” (Mojo Magazine)

Sweden’s female country blues answer to the early Pogues, return to Portsmouth following their three sell out shows in the city in previous years.

The self-styled “queens of banjo punk” have a foundation of roots music and Americana settled in their hearts and are famed for their brilliant live shows as well as their exceptionally crafted songs. The three sisters can’t recall when or why they started playing, the music’s always been there. In their late teens, the sisters joined forces with their dad, who for decades was a one man band playing old blues and country tunes for a living.

“Killer bottleneck banjo, thumping kick drum and sweet wailing harmonies - some sort of bleached Black Rebel Motorcycle Club at their most twangy with the feisty attitude of June Carter!” (Line Of Best Fit)

Their album releases to date have received great acclaim by the press and have been released in numerous countries. The releases in combination with relentless touring have given the band a reputation as one of the music scene’s most noticeable live acts.

In 2015 they were invited to join Robbie Williams as opener and special guests on his arena tour throughout Europe. Later that year they also toured the US with Gary Clark Jr and Brandi Carlile.

2017 and 2018 were both equally busy with multiple international tours, including appearances at Bonnaroo, Newport Folk Festival, Arroyo Seco, UtopiaFest and Bottlerock alongside artists like Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Alabama Shakes, Dr John, The Meters, The Avett Brothers and more.
