THE CHAPIN SISTERS, Lily and Abigail Chapin, are singing, songwriting sisters known for pristine harmonies and haunting melodies. These masters of “blood harmony” have been compared to sister-acts of old and Appalachian family groups, yet their original songs and arrangements have a contemporary feel. Making music that The New York Times praises as “tantalizingly close to beauty," The Chapin Sisters carry on a proud family musical legacy: Father Tom Chapin is a Grammy®-winning singer/songwriter, legendary late uncle Harry Chapin was a musical artist and activist, and grandfather Jim Chapin was an esteemed jazz drummer and author of seminal drum instructional books. Since 2005 the sisters have garnered critical acclaim by forging a distinctive musical imprint in which they “wed lilting voices, dynamically complex vocal harmonies, and folk influenced melodies to dark, wryly sarcastic lyrical content.” They have toured the world both as headliners and as back-up singers.
