Celebrate New Year's Day at Americana Happy Hour
ft. Chicago's own bluegrass pros, The Sullivan Sisters!

The Sullivan Sisters have dazzled audiences since childhood with their unique blend
of fast bluegrass picking and captivating sibling harmonies, with music ranging from
lyrical originals to timeless folk classics to blazing instrumentals.

Inspired by the bluegrass community in North Carolina where they were born and raised,
Soraya and Luciya began taking guitar and banjo lessons at ages 8 and 6.
Their music drew influence from the bluegrass community surrounding them,
and they carried their love of the genre with them when they relocated to Chicago.

Over the past ten years, The Sullivan Sisters have toured the country as featured performers at Merlefest,
the Bluegrass Hall of Fame & Museum’s Romptober Festival, IBMA’s Bluegrass Live Festival,
the Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour, and the Evanston Folk Festival.
Their instrumental talents have garnered them national distinction,
including First Prize in Banjo and Third Prize in Guitar at Rockygrass 2023,
and Second Prize in the 2024 Galax Old Fiddlers Convention Bluegrass Banjo contest.

The sisters have recently formed a five-piece band by joining forces with three phenomenal teen pickers and longtime friends: Oscar Caudell on mandolin, Finn McGuinness on fiddle, and Sammy Mougin on bass. The new band launched its debut to a sold-out, standing room audience at Evanston SPACE in January 2025, and has multiple tours planned for 2025 and beyond.
