Wow! I had another video on and was listening more than watching. The video ended and I reached for my iPad to play something else. Before I could bring up the search bar to type, these ladies voices began to flow out of the speakers. Needless to say, whatever I was going to listen to next took a backseat to this amazing talent. One of my favorite things is when you accidentally stumble across some group that you know you’ll be listening to for years and you only just discovered them. Beautiful talent! I love it!
They're on Brandi Carlisle's record label. They opened for Brandi on the tour. I was lucky enough to see them live in Phoenix in August. I predict they'll be getting popular sooner than later.
Beautiful.. You guys should bring The Tallest Man On Earth back when he's in town next time!! NPR Tiny Desk Concerts is the reason I'm using the internet lol
I lost the count of times this made me shiver (or whatever you write it), and now im crying for no reason other than i feel special because i cuold to listen to this
If I were born to be a river If a river is all I'd be I'd tell the giver of all of the rivers To make me the Tennessee How many drops of rain roll of how many windowpanes Down to a valley low where a river like me begins to grow I sing a mournful song as I rush a ramble along I bury secrets deep I keep them down where the catfish creep Where the rolling tide can't reach the things that I hide I hum a mournful tune in the Alabama June And I sing Even the Tennessee river runs low When the sky is bright and clear Not a cloud above you You can float in knowing, dear That I was made to love you When the storm is raging All the light is fading The river sings along with me Reaching for that minor key Color me blue and gray River, carry me fast away Flood all the rocks and grills On for the mighty hill I am the Tennessee See you down at the stormy sea And I sing Even the Tennessee river runs low The Tennessee river runs low Even the Tennessee river runs low
Beautiful music, yet another awesome NPR found band! Also, on the technical side (if anyone knows) what are the shotgun mics that NPR use? They're really lovely and I'm looking to add to my collection...
Flee as a bird to your mountain Thou who are weary of sin Go to the clear flowing fountain Where you may wash and be clean Fly for the adventure is near thee Call and the savior will hear thee He on his bosom will bear thee Thou who are weary of sin Oh thou who are weary of sin He will protect me forever Wipe every falling tear He will forsake me oh never Sheltered oh so tenderly there Haste now the hours are flying Spend all your moments inside Cease from your sorrow and crying The savior will wipe every tear The savior will wipe every tear
These ladies opened for Punch Brothers on the last tour I caught, and they were just as wonderful as they are here! So happy to hear their music again!
I have been listening to this video a lot. The richness of their harmonization is gorgeous, these two ladies clearly have a ton of experience singing with each other. I hope to hear an album of theirs with this bare-bones sound come out some day.
Dear lord Ladies. . .its been far too long. . Get this "Thing" done in our country and get back on Tour. .and oh yea. . ADD CLEVELAND TO THE TOUR!! PLEEEEZE. .Love you Laura and Lydia. .God Bless you and your Heavenly, Angelic, Everly-est Voices of One!
Lovely. Makes me want to watch old movies. So cool to see the young people playing songs without computers and loopers and such. Not that modern music isn't valid, it is and I love much of it... but, wow, the minimal approach to music/songs... is just where it's at, ultimately. At least for me! Vintage music blues/hymns/etc... ya.. Thanks for posting!
vorrei avere anch'io una sorella sulla mia lunghezza d'onda... Basterebbe un'amica.. Un po' meno americano: vi mangiate le parole e andate troppo veloci, oktre allo 'slang'.. difficilissimo, capirci, quando parlate e ancge quando cantare.. tipo il " 'cause"= because!
I only heard these two voices for the first time a month or so ago. It still applies: these voices fit together.......magnificently.......naah.......what's better than magnificent?
Grateful melody subtle tone and movement
They are more than good
They are inspiring... Bravi
so glad i clicked on this!
Nothing better than sibling harmonies!
Sounding Good. Come and Play Asheville, nice single groove and fantastic harmony.
Well, I just found my new musical obsession! They are so talented, stylish, and beautiful! They've transported me to another place
They are good beyond good

How have I never heard this before?! This is absolutely beautiful and inspirational. I love the style. Beautiful ladies :)
I agree! Found them from watching Brandi Carlisle. Cool to find new talent! Lucky us🍀
This is what music is supposed to be. Regardless of the genre, real talent & songwriting are essential.

Very nice!
I'm going to hear them at Fire & Wood this weekend!
Beautiful women with beautiful eyes and hauntingly beautiful voices and harmonies. I love NPR Tiny Desk for introducing me to such wonderful artists.
Beautiful.. You guys should bring The Tallest Man On Earth back when he's in town next time!! NPR Tiny Desk Concerts is the reason I'm using the internet lol
i agree for TTMOE !!!!! BRING HIM BAAAAAACK !
Not too much but NPR over internet actually...
I lost the count of times this made me shiver (or whatever you write it), and now im crying for no reason other than i feel special because i cuold to listen to this
100% harmony. Oh my. I'm in love with them.
If I were born to be a river
If a river is all I'd be
I'd tell the giver of all of the rivers
To make me the Tennessee
How many drops of rain roll of how many windowpanes
Down to a valley low where a river like me begins to grow
I sing a mournful song as I rush a ramble along
I bury secrets deep
I keep them down where the catfish creep
Where the rolling tide can't reach the things that I hide
I hum a mournful tune in the Alabama June
And I sing
Even the Tennessee river runs low
When the sky is bright and clear
Not a cloud above you
You can float in knowing, dear
That I was made to love you
When the storm is raging
All the light is fading
The river sings along with me
Reaching for that minor key
Color me blue and gray
River, carry me fast away
Flood all the rocks and grills
On for the mighty hill
I am the Tennessee
See you down at the stormy sea
And I sing
Even the Tennessee river runs low
The Tennessee river runs low
Even the Tennessee river runs low
"Whilst the most beautiful of the two, are on each side... the best voice of Them both is in the middle." - gilpin 121616
I adore them so much. Their whole vibe. So excited for their next album.
They were also featured on John Paul White's (ex-The Civil Wars) latest album: Beluah, on the song "I've been over this before."
Beautiful music, yet another awesome NPR found band! Also, on the technical side (if anyone knows) what are the shotgun mics that NPR use? They're really lovely and I'm looking to add to my collection...
Sennheiser MKH 418-S.
Beautiful!! The harmonies..aah! So lovely!
representing South Alabama
Please release the first song! You both are so amazing and the one is just another feather in your caps! I love your music!
Love this
Flee as a bird to your mountain
Thou who are weary of sin
Go to the clear flowing fountain
Where you may wash and be clean
Fly for the adventure is near thee
Call and the savior will hear thee
He on his bosom will bear thee
Thou who are weary of sin
Oh thou who are weary of sin
He will protect me forever
Wipe every falling tear
He will forsake me oh never
Sheltered oh so tenderly there
Haste now the hours are flying
Spend all your moments inside
Cease from your sorrow and crying
The savior will wipe every tear
The savior will wipe every tear
That is the cleanest guitar tone in the world. They are perfect pitch too! Can't wait to see them again!
Harmony so tight
love it
So I was watching this video of a guy woodworking in his shop and he used this version of Flee As a Bird in it, and I HAD TO FIND THIS. So glad I did.
These ladies opened for Punch Brothers on the last tour I caught, and they were just as wonderful as they are here! So happy to hear their music again!
Now the lot of them need to go back in time and open for The Mamas and the Papas!
I have been listening to this video a lot. The richness of their harmonization is gorgeous, these two ladies clearly have a ton of experience singing with each other. I hope to hear an album of theirs with this bare-bones sound come out some day.
I fell in love after the first 30 seconds, beautiful voices ladies! and thanks NPR Music for share :)
They’re voices are so beautiful, wish to see them in concert any day
You hear them sing, and you feel like you know them. But nope. Thats just good music
Been a fan for a long time and I am so excited Brandi Carlile is working with these sisters ❤❤❤
nice!
I've heard of these two before from John Paul White, but first time actually listening. Truly enjoyed this... Thanks NPR!
Got to play with these lovely sisters a few weeks ago..amazing live performers
and super nice/humble people. Hope more people hear them!
I love them, even some covers they do in a beautiful way I like it better than the original sometimes. 😍
that guitar tone is beautiful!

"I mean, who wants to listen to happy songs?"
I am in love ❤ I am bit jealous, this is my dream. Amazing writing, gorgeous harmonies, a sound that I could listen to forever!

vorrei avere anch'io una sorella sulla mia lunghezza d'onda...

Un po' meno americano: vi mangiate le parole e andate troppo veloci, oktre allo 'slang'.. difficilissimo, capirci, quando parlate e ancge quando cantare.. tipo il " 'cause"= because!
pure & beautiful
Lovely voices
Happiness to hear you. (I was making a bed so didn't see you 😊.) You enlivened and enlovened the experience. Lov

No se por qué estas canciones me trasladan al mundo novelesco de William Faulkner. Hermosisimo.
I'm happy they are back and excited for there third album!
I only heard these two voices for the first time a month or so ago. It still applies: these voices fit together.......magnificently.......naah.......what's better than magnificent?
