The Bevvy Sisters

Affectionately known as "the Andrew Sisters with switchblades," the famous Bevvy Sisters are going to set String Jam Club alight on Friday 26th August with their unique and classy vocal blend of Americana and swing.

Since 2006 the Bevvy Sisters have won a uniquely distinctive place in audiences’ hearts throughout Scotland and the rest of the U.K. Their radiantly triple-layered voices and artfully wide-ranging repertoire of vintage, contemporary and original songs stand out from the crowd in both style and substance.

The Bevvy Sisters are Heather Macleod, Gina Rae, Cera Impala and David Donnelly (guitar & mandolin). Their joint vocal power melds together with a combination of sass and class that is edgy, thrilling and as sweet and sublime as a Michelin starred dessert course, according to Folk Radio UK. The trio's magic emerges from the different genres and vocal tones that each member brings to the band. Co-founder Heather Macleod has a powerfully emotive voice, owing much to her celtic roots and the 1990's Aberdeen blues-jam scene. Gina Rae, the 2nd eldest girl in Scotland’s largest jazz family, has a voice that will stop you in your tracks, Stevie Wonder meets Rickie Lee Jones describing it well. Arizona-born Cera Impala is a "simply stunning wild banjo-wielding mama", her soft seductive vocals blending beautifully with the Bevvy sound. No stranger to the club, earlier this year Cera performed at the club with Dark Green Tree and Boo Hewerdine.

Completing the core quartet is David Donnelly (ex-Salsa Celtica/Finlay Quaye), a virtual one-man band and gifted songwriter who frames and underpins the sorority’s sound with brilliantly taut, inventive guitar and mandolin work, plus the odd basso profundo counter-harmony.

The Bevvy Sisters' most recent album 'Plan B' garnered universal praise, including 4-star reviews in both 'The Scotsman' and 'Scotland on Sunday,' overwhelmingly positive music media coverage and winning the BBC's 'Best Of The Fest' Award at the Edinburgh Fringe 2014. In short, the Bevvy Sisters are pure vocal magic, distilled to the power of three.

Together, their expertly controlled voices complement each other gorgeously. As well as being technically glorious, the voices artfully interpret diverse styles including blues, soul, jazz and country - and lots of mischievous banter in between. There is something for everyone here. Artful, sassy, exuberant, vivacious, enchanting and supremely entertaining, this promises to be a real feel-good evening. In the words of Eliza Carthy "the Bevvy Sisters can mix the dirtiest martini in town, then sing it.” The joy, chemistry and sheer wow of three voices singing out as one is so special, and will uplift and stay with you for a long time.
