“The Chapin Sisters can harmonize like angels,” says Popmatters of siblings Abigail and Lily Chapin, whose recent singles “Bergen Street” and “All Through The Night” were released on Lake Bottom Records.
Making music that The New York Times praises as “tantalizingly close to beauty”, The Chapin Sisters carry on a musical legacy: father Tom Chapin is a Grammy-winning singer/songwriter, late uncle Harry Chapin was an artist and activist known for his #1 hit “Cat’s in the Cradle”, and grandpa Jim Chapin literally wrote the book on how to play the drums.
Since 2005, these masters of blood harmony have garnered acclaim by forging a musical imprint in which they “wed lilting voices, dynamically complex vocal harmonies, and folk-influenced melodies to dark, wryly sarcastic lyrical content” notes Amazon in an editorial review. They have been featured in Rolling Stone, The New York Times, NPR’s Weekend Edition, Nylon, Spin, Paper, T Magazine, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.
