About
TWO GIRLS. TWO GUITARS. HARMONY-DRIVEN ACOUSTIC ROCK.
Karen and Amy Jones are singers...sisters...and songwriters known for their melodic vocal lines and tight harmonies. Both classically-trained vocalists, they traded their opera arias for acoustic guitars and now perform together as an acoustic rock duo in the northeastern United States.
Two songwriters with very different styles, the girls treat audiences to a diverse collection of melodic and harmony-heavy songs ranging from hooky pop-rock to dark, dissonant ballads. Fans have drawn comparisons to Ann and Nancy Wilson from Heart, The Indigo Girls, Liz Phair and fellow Pennsylvania rockers Live, but they have a sound all their own.
Karen and Amy couple accomplished voices with well-constructed melodies, soaring harmonies and passionate, personal lyrics. Listeners can expect a curvy ride through hopeful, catchy rants to sad, soulful lamentations, delivered by two sisters who commit to every note.
