Like their pseudo-sister role models, the Davis Sisters, the Sweetback Sisters sing country songs in close, surrogate-sister harmony and matching dresses. The band is fronted by vocalists Zara Bode and Emily Miller, whose honey-sweet harmonies have been described as “seamless” (The Alternate Root), and “like what I’d imagine was coming from your grandma’s radio 50 years ago as she was whipping up the evening meal” (Pittsburgh Daily News). The band’s high-energy stage show features solid old-time country picking and singing that reveals the players’ deep roots in traditional American music while at the same time betraying their youth.
