Bio / Background
Originally a trio, this cult phenomenon has become an amorphous performance ensemble that expands to quartet status whenever possible. The core group of Kirsten Baird, Kathleen Bielawski, Jenny Murray, and Peggy Monaghan performs in a wide variety of styles, colors, and fabrics.
This award-winning group is essentially an acapella ensemble, but you just never know what these women will do on stage. Their shows often feature a variety of instruments from kazoos and pennywhistle to guitar and piano. They have become a much-anticipated highlight of many West Coast productions and a back-up vocal ensemble favored by many musicians. They can be heard on their newly-released CD, “Cheek to Cheek” on Arctic Siren Records.
