SongSisters & Many Faces at The Clover room

SongSisters – Sue Fink, Patti Shaffner, and Amy Dixon-Kolar – are award-winning singer/songwriter friends who discovered that their own distinctive styles blend together, creating something richer than the individual, stronger as a whole. They delight in and celebrate each other’s music: each “sister” takes the lead on original songs, the others adding soaring harmonies and instrumentation.

The powerful vocals of Beth Patterson, Halley King, and Athena Kaufman combine forces in Many Faces. Weaving harmony rich vocals with vulnerable lyrics, their all original songs speak to the human condition and healing journey that arises from a commitment to growth and self-actualization.
