The Chapin Sisters

The Chapin Sisters are three sisters from New York whose unique blend of traditional folk harmonies and indie rock moodiness (think Crosby Stills and Nash meets Cat Power) have been winning them an increasing number of fans.

Though the girls have been singing together informally for years, the Chapin Sisters started as a group only two years ago. One night the sisters started playing three part harmony renditions of new wave and punk songs they'd listened to growing up. The result was so satisfying they decided to scrape together some cash and record six covers ranging from Neil Young to Culture Club. Abigail Chapin packed up her life in New York and moved to LA, Lily Chapin quit her busy film job, and Jessica Craven welcomed them to LA. (All have the same mother, Bonnie Chapin - though while Abigail and Lily are daughters of folk singer Tom Chapin, Jessica's father is director Wes Craven.)
