The Lovell Sisters Band

We are very pleased to welcome the Lovell Sisters Band to our church for a concert on the Autumnal Equinox, September 24th. Fresh from a tour of the South and an appearance at the Signal Mountain Opry, they bring their close harmonies to a modern blend of folk, country, and contemporary acoustic music. We hope everyone will attend this family–friendly event.

Jessica, Megan, and Rebecca Lovell began lessons in classical violin and piano at age five. The girls also sang frequently as a vocal trio and in the church choir. All three were members of string quartets and youth symphonies. Straying from their classical roots into bluegrass, the Lovell Sisters were hooked when they heard the Jerry Douglas album, Slide Rule.

The girls took lessons on several instruments: banjo, fiddle, mandolin, guitar, bass, and dobro. Displaying a musical maturity beyond their years, the Lovell Sisters are inspired by Alison Krauss, Andrea Bocelli and the Allman Brothers, among many more. Family friend Andy Nall first played guitar with the band and has recently moved to the acoustic bass due to a severe bout of tendinitis. Josh Miller, the most recent addition to the band, has been involved in bluegrass music as long as he can remember and loves all styles of music. In addition to playing (and teaching) piano, guitar, banjo, mandolin, fiddle and drums, Josh has written extensively.
Limited seating—only 225 tickets available. One night only.
Tickets for the Lovell Sisters Band are $18 each and will be available mid-August. You may call the office at 423-624-2985 beginning August 24th to make your reservations and pick up your tickets.
