SISTERS + Maiah Manser land at SPACECRAFT
SISTERS is an orchestra of two, and their togetherness is infectious. Within their first four shows, the Seattle duo opened for Allen Stone at Chateau Ste Michelle and played the inaugural Fisherman's Village Music Festival; within three months, their lead singles, Back 2 U and Buzzard, were licensed by Starbucks, and within their first year, they were booked at Sasquatch! Music Festival, Bumbershoot Music and Arts Festival and Capitol Hill Block Party. Their genre-gender-bending brand of indie pop is as endearing as it is virtuosic, as pointed out by Gelatinous Blog's Jared Brannan, who proclaimed, "It's honestly hard to fathom that the compositions these two generate can be performed with a sum total of 8 appendages and two voices. The quality of that astonishment [;is]; not lost upon the crowd, as each rawkus round of shouts and applause between songs [;feels]; like a celebration of profound technical musicianship." This is the togetherness of SISTERS, and everywhere they go, audiences, musicians, and critics alike are cheering their praise.
"In real life, the band SISTERS do not want to sell you real estate and/or have you join a cult...If they did, though, it might be worth looking into."
- THE STRANGER
Five years ago Maiah Manser moved to Seattle to pursue a career in music. She has worked with projects: The Esoterics, Pollens and the Mary Lambert Tour, performing on Jay Leno's Tonight Show, Good Morning America and VH-1's You Oughta Know. In 2012, Maiah began her solo career playing for EMPs Sound Off! 2013 competition. Often compared to female power houses like Kate Bush, Florence and the Machine and Lady Gaga, Maiah strives to fuse the digital and the organic
"Manser layers her smoky, seductive voice with electronic noises, strings, and piano, sounding at once like something coming out of a Victrola and the speakers at a Belltown nightclub."
-Megan Seling (The Stranger)
