T Sisters

Available on CD/Vinyl/Digitally


In the heart of the creative renaissance taking shape in Oakland, California, the ​T Sisters​ are making a name for themselves as one of the West Coast’s foremost Indie­ Americana acts. The sisters tap into a tradition that hails from folk’s deepest roots: sibling song-­making and harmonizing. A follow­up to their 2014 debut release, ​Kindred Lines (produced by celebrated bluegrass musician ​Laurie Lewis​), the T Sisters’ forthcoming self­ titled sophomore studio album features 10 timeless songs that, while inspired by the American folk tradition, also embody a fresh and contemporary sound with inflections of pop, R&B/soul and country.
Led by sisters ​Erika​, ​Rachel ​and ​Chloe Tietjen​, the T Sisters first came to national recognition with a performance on ​A Prairie Hom​e Companion and a widely broadcasted rendition of the national anthem at a ​San Francisco Giants​ game. The T Sisters’ awe­-inspiring harmonies have impressed many prominent artists, leading to onstage collaborations with the likes of ​Amos Lee​, ​Jim Lauderdale,​ and The Wood Brothers​, as well as supporting vocal performances for three years in a row at ​Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival​ (San Francisco, CA). Quickly garnering the attention of top tastemakers, the debut single “The Ro​ ad” from ​T Sisters is already receiving early airplay on ​Sirius/XM, ​and the second album single “Come Back Down” has aired on the venerable San Francisco radio station ​KFOG​.
The 9 original compositions and one cover song​ comprising ​T Sisters cast a portrait of life experiences replete with love, struggle, and self­ discovery. the musical style is driving and sassy, embracing a theatrical sense of rhythm, imagery and movement. While the importance of familial bonds and the sonority of sibling harmony remain intrinsic to all T Sisters music, their aptly­ titled sophomore release transcends these roots and demonstrates a broader appeal than ever before.
