BIO
With the people behind them, this rootsy alternative band is known for a both uplifting and moving live show. Through compelling vocals, a driving, dynamic rhythm section, rootsy yet gritty guitar stylings, and thought-provoking lyrics, Sister Speak has connected deeply with a diverse crowd of fans from around the globe.
Hailing out of British Columbia and recently based in San Diego, CA, Sister Speak performs over 100 concerts a year in Canada and the USA. Fronted by Canadian singer/songwriter and guitarist Sherri-Anne,  their debut ‘Rise Up For Love’ album has been aired and in rotation on radio throughout the USA, Canada and Europe, including CBC radio in Canada, BBC in Europe, and commercial radio throughout southern California and British Columbia. Both core members Sherri Anne & drummer Lisa Viegas grew up in British Columbia. Sister Speak’s current line-up features the additionTolan Shaw and the bass grooves of Jacob Miranda.
In their first deep and rhythmic song cycle, Rise Up For Love, Sister Speak authentically convey the raw vulnerability of universal principles and the transformative power of love through their pensive blend of acoustic, blues and world pop. Prior to recording an injury brought Sherri Anne back to her Canadian homeland where she rest in recovery for two months – it was at that trying time, in moments of extreme vulnerability, that most of the songs from Sister Speak’s debut ‘Rise Up For Love’ album came through. The record was tracked in top of the line analog capability with Grammy Award winning engineer Alan Sanderson(Fiona Apple, Fleetwood Mac) at the helm. Sanderson worked intimately with the band, keeping the emotional content intact while showcasing the bands unique musical ‘vortex’. Mastering engineer Brian Lucey(Black Keys, Arctic Monkeys) added a magical finishing touch to this genuinely crafted album.
Sister Speak has played notable venues such as Humphrey’s on the Bay opening for Chris Isaak and Air Supply,  The Coach House supporting Xavier Rudd, House of Blues San Diego, The Belly Up opening for Henry Kapono, The Namm Show, Hard Rock Cafe Chicago, Mayne Stage Chicago, Railway Club Vancouver, Juno-Fest and CMW showcases in Toronto, Sunpeak’s summer concert series with the Arkell’s, festivals throughout the USA and Canada, and is currently gearing up for international touring in 2015.
