FEATURE ARTIST
Charlotte & Sarah (the Command Sisters) share a deep love for music and performing. Accompanying themselves on guitar, keyboard, mandolin, bass and fiddle, as well as performing all original material, they have been taking the Alberta music scene by storm! The girl's music is original and creative, with a unique sound, not only far beyond their years, but totally and completely their own.
Charlotte is the writer of the duo. She is already mastering the craft of songwriting, weaving lyric and music with a sophistication that is well beyond her 15 years. Sarah (12) is definitely the little firecracker, soloing and improving, she has the audience wrapped around her fingers from beginning to end! Since their start in 2005, Charlotte & Sarah have been busy performing at many different venues and events, such as; CKUA Radio Open House, The Stollery, Mountain View Music Fest, The Works, Central Fest, Disneyland's Southwest Conference, Island Folk Fest, CBC's New Year's Eve Main Stage, Big Valley Jamboree’s Family Stage, Night of Artists, Homefest, CFRN's Annual Silver Bell's Tea & Festival of Trees with Carrie Doll, multiple rodeos, fundraisers, festivals, private functions and seniors’ events. This year Charlotte & Sarah were thrilled to open for Gord Bamford at the Shaw Conference Centre. They were also asked back to Disneyland to perform at the conference as well in the Disneyland Theme Park.
Charlotte & Sarah's Upcoming Shows:
  • Saturday, December 4th with Alee @ Axis Cafe E-TICKETS
     
    We apologize for the mix up, we said December 18th when it is ACTUALLY December 4th.
  • Friday, December 10th with U22's The Sibling Revival Concert - Expressionz Cafe Doors at 7pm Tickets are $15 at the door.
