While comparisons to Ani Difranco and Sweet Honey in the Rock are flattering, diverse influences and taste dictate a sound that is unparalleled in current folk and popular music.
Bio / Background
Copper Wimmin, met in a childrens chorus at the age of twelve. Sophia Mallie, Tenaya Wallach and Alyx Benham grew up best of friends and began writing and performing their own songs in their late teens. The group's name "Copper Wimmin" originates from the book "The Daughters of Copper Woman" by Anne Cameron. The book is a collection of creation legends from indigenous peoples of Canada. According to one legend, the first woman on earth was Copper Woman.
The vocal trio from the San Francisco bay area was officially formed in 1994 and they released their first and second CDs in 1998, and 2001. They were finalists in the Lilith Fair Talent Search, silver medallists at the 2003 Harmony Sweepstakes, and semi-finalists in the 2003 Independent Music World Series. Recently they were featured on Amy Goodman's national public radio program "Democracy Now".
These three vocal virtuosos leave audiences large and small with the sense of having witnessed something extraordinary.

Best cd I've listened to in agesEmerald_eyes wrote on August 28, 2008
The reason these musicians seem to have grasped my fascination is the simplicity of it. The fact that there is very little background music. It is the purest form of music that I have ever heard in my life. I find it amazing that these women are able to make a piece of art through means of only their voices. Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!
