The Gothard Sisters
Over the course of nearly 1000 shows since they formed as a Celtic band in 2006, the Gothard Sisters who are truly sisters have become internationally recognized as multi-instrumentalist songwriters from the Pacific Northwest, USA. The Gothard Sisters pay respect to tradition with folk instruments, infusing them with a radiant joy and reintroducing them through beautiful new arrangements. Although much of the sisters' inspiration comes with a distinct Celtic flair, hints of their western American heritage can be heard in what Irish Central calls "an earthiness that gives the songs a lively, approachable, down-home sound." Firmly rooted in Classical and Folk music from a young age, Greta, Willow and Solana Gothard have each developed skills on multiple instruments to express their musical ideas.
The Gothard Sisters operate independently of any music label - self-producing their own albums, shows and music videos. Along the way, the group received Best New Irish Artist from the Irish Music Awards in 2013 and Album of the Year from Celtic Radio in 2011 for their album Story Girl. In March 2015, their music video Scarborough Fair reached over 1 million views.
Summer 2015 will see the release of The Gothard Sisters' long-awaited new album. The album features tales in song of courage, loyalty, beauty, and the rewards of patience and contentment with what we have, all told with a simplicity that speaks directly to the heart. Soaring violins, exuberant drums, driving guitars and gracious vocals sweep you along to another time and place.
"With such a delicate, organic production value and impressive performances, it is no wonder that "Story Girl" went on to receive praise on an international level, often mentioned as one of the best Celtic records of the year. Where so many musicians risk to get stuck within their technicality, The Gothard Sisters truly bridge the gap between their formal musical training and their more instinctive, emotional side that make their performances so intimate and engaging." - Celtic Radio
