The Sullivan Sisters

The Sullivan Sisters are a rising bluegrass band known for their striking instrumental skills, sibling harmonies, and distinctive blend of contemporary originals and traditional repertoire. Sisters Soraya (guitar, vocals) and Luciya (banjo, vocals) began playing bluegrass as children in North Carolina, carrying that passion with them when their family relocated to Chicago. They have gained national recognition through performances at MerleFest, Planet Bluegrass FallGrass, and the Bluegrass Hall of Fame & Museum, and have appeared at numerous Chicago area venues, including Thalia Hall and multiple sold-out shows headlining at Evanston SPACE. The Sullivan Sisters were selected as an Official Showcase Artist at IBMA 2025 and their debut EP, Carolina Bluebird, released in August 2025. The sisters have signed with Nashville based independent acoustic label Dark Shadow Recording. The Sullivan Sisters are proud to feature new members Finn McGuinness on fiddle, Sammy Mougin on bass, and Gabe Zinser on mandolin.
