T Sisters & Wine Tasting

Schedule

Sat Sep 21

These sisters sing a combo of Americana, gospel, country and soul.

Made up of twins Rachel and Chloe Tietjen and their older sister Erika, T Sisters are based in the creative hub of Oakland, California. Distinguished by catchy melodies and potent lyricism, T Sisters’ sound represents a continuum of music: from roots to pop influences, moments of stunning a cappella to swells of groovy indie folk. The sisters' contemporary yet classic sound invites a range of likenesses, from the Pointer Sisters and the Everly Brothers to modern family bands like the Avett Brothers and First Aid Kit. With their soaring sibling harmonies, sassy stage presence and inventive songwriting, these three sisters bring a soulful take on folk/Americana music.

In 2019, T Sisters participated in American Musicians Abroad, a selective State Department-sponsored program fostering diplomacy through music. The sisters performed and conducted workshops in the Middle East and North Africa emphasizing girls empowerment and the role of music in creating social awareness and change.

Rachel (vox, guitar, banjo), Chloe (vox, percussion) and Erika (vox, guitar) are all songwriters in their own right and switch off on lead vocals. While their voices blend seamlessly, each has a distinct singing and writing style. Rachel’s soulful style is highlighted in her vintage blues-inspired tunes. Chloe sings her heartfelt and poetic lyrics in a country tone. Erika weaves a story with attitude and belts with the confidence and style of a pop diva. The combination results in an eclectic repertoire unified by a landscape of close harmonies.
