The Carper Family

Skyflight Productions presents an evening with The Carper Family on Thursday August 29, 2013 at The Grange Hall in Barnesville, OH. The Carper Family has brought together three of Austin's most talented young country and bluegrass singers and pickers. Melissa Carper [vocals, bass], Beth Chrisman [vocals, fiddle], and Jenn Miori [vocals, guitar] each grew up singing and playing music with their families. By the time they created their new "family band" in 2010, each member had already led her own band and sat in with some of Austin's finest musicians. This particular collaboration has blended stunning three part harmonies into the finest old country, oldtime, bluegrass, and swing tunes. Their boileddown and intimate presentation highlights the quality of their united and solo voices, as well as drawing out each player's abilities with her accompanying instrument. In addition to bringing audiences their beautiful renditions of standards, the group also writes original songs that both honor and challenge the solid country traditions at the heart of their heartfelt sound.
