About the Artist
With their unique instrumentation (harp and guitar), soaring vocal harmonies, and unforgettable original songs, The Callen Sisters make an impact from the first listen. More than a singer-songwriter duo, they are family, friends, and musical partners. They share each other’s lives, a closeness that informs their music and that is displayed to stirring effect on their self-titled debut album, which stands as a testament of shared experience, loss, and love.
In September of 2008, The Callen Sisters signed to Cordless Recordings and have begun recording their sophomore album. They have played in legendary music venues such as The Bitter End and Caffé Lena and most recently The Living Room.
