The Burney Sisters are a powerhouse sibling duo redefining indie-folk with their soulful harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, and magnetic stage presence. Originally from the Midwest, sisters Emma and Bella Burney create music that blends folk, indie, and Americana into a sound that feels both timeless and fresh. Drawing inspiration from iconic artists like Paul Simon and Lake Street Dive, as well as contemporary trailblazers like Lizzy McAlpine, Madison Cunningham, Phoebe Bridgers, and First Aid Kit The Burney Sisters bridge generations with a style that is uniquely their own. Emma's multi-instrumental talents---on piano, violin, guitar, and cello---pair seamlessly with Bella's commanding basslines, showcasing a maturity and versatility far beyond their years. Their music explores themes of love, resilience, and self-discovery with a raw honesty that resonates deeply with fans of all ages. For the past eight years, The Burney Sisters have traveled extensively, performing across the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean. Their journey has not only shaped their sound but also fueled their passion for connecting through music.
