The Quebe Sisters Band
When Grace, Sophia and Hulda Quebe (pronounced kway-bee) take to a stage to play and sing their vintage-style three-part harmony, audiences are mesmerized. Add the swinging rhythm guitar of World Champion fiddler Joey McKenzie and the upright bass of Drew Phelps, and the Quebe Sisters Band becomes a force of nature.
Reaction is the same wherever the Fort Worth-based group goes, and it's been around! Highlights include the Grand Ole Opry, the Kennedy Center, NYC's Lincoln Center as well as major festivals, concert halls and corporate events across North America and Canada.
Performing a refreshing blend of their favorite styles of music - whether it's a western swing classic a la Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys, a hot jazz or swing standard (Benny Goodman), vintage country shuffle or western anthem that would do the Sons of the Pioneers proud, the QSB is phenomenal. The house comes down, too, when they launch into bluegrass or a traditional, Texas style fiddle tune.
Recently named Group of the Year by the Academy of Western Artists and recipient of the Crescendo Award by the Western Music Association, as well as nominations for Country group of the year by both the Dallas Observer and Ft. Worth Weekly, the QSB is performing coast to coast in support of their latest cd, TIMELESS.
TIMELESS, the band's debut album on FiddleTone Records, features the Sons' "So Long to the Red River Valley" along with Duke Ellington's "Take the 'A' Train," Spade Cooley's "Shame on You" and Hoagy Carmichael and Stuart Gorrell's "Georgia on My Mind" — a collection of band members' favorite tunes by their favorite artists, given the QSB-style golden touch.
