Live DVD from The Lovell Sisters
The Lovell Sisters (Jessica, Megan, and Rebecca), a trio of talented young women from Georgia, have released a live concert DVD. Filmed at the Philadelphia Folk Festival, it is titled The Lovell Sisters – Live at the Philadelphia Folk Festival.
The girls, between 16 and 21, are relative newcomers to bluegrass but as their debut CD and this live concert release show, they are very quick studies. Jessica plays fiddle, Rebbecca mandolin, and Megan resophonic guitar, with all three singing. They are joined by Jake Stargel on guitar and Andy Nall on bass.
Jessica tells us that the DVD was an unplanned event.
“Actually, we weren’t aware the set would be filmed until we arrived at the festival. It was truly an awesome night! We played the late night slot just prior to Doc Watson. The footage turned out really well.”
Ten songs are featured, and a track list can be found on their web site.
