The sound of SistaStrings can’t be described in one word. The Nashville based sister duo combines their classical background with R&B with a touch of gospel influence that culminates in a vibey, lush sound. With thick string harmonies between violin and cello and soulful voices, SistaStrings takes you on a journey. Formed in 2014 after the sisters graduated from college, Chauntee (violin) moved back from her studies at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and Monique from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the sisters began doing string arrangements for local hip-hop artists and the rest is history. Slowly but surely, SistaStrings built a following and began playing more shows with collaboration being one of their strongest points. They’ve toured with Allison Russell and are members of Brandi Carlile’s band. They’ve opened for Abigail
Washburn, Brandy Clark and Ani DiFranco and many others over the past few years. SistaStrings is currently working on their debut album.
