The Lion Sisters 
|
The Lion Sisters are a sibling duo from New Hampshire known for their tight harmonies and natural musical synchronicity. With Josi on fiddle and vocals and Lily on guitar and vocals, their sound blends folk and bluegrass with Irish fiddle, vintage country, and subtle pop and rock influences—creating a warm, contemporary style that’s distinctly their own.
Raised on a small family farm, the sisters draw inspiration from their rural surroundings, weaving nature and authenticity into their songwriting and visual identity. This past summer, they performed throughout New England, including at Ossipee Valley Music Festival and several concert series. With their signature sister harmonies and genre-blending sound, they are quickly emerging as a fresh voice in the modern acoustic scene. Website: thelionsistersmusic.com |
