Live Concerts In The
Greenville, Texas Municipal
Auditorium
The Quebe Sisters
Saturday, October 23, 2023 @7:30
With over fifteen years of touring to date, The
Quebe Sisters have delivered their authentic
triple fiddle and three-part harmony sound to
the concert halls
and festivals of
North America,
Europe, and
Russia.
Grace, Sophia,
and Hulda
Quebe front an innovative Progressive Western
Swing band of archtop guitar, upright bass,
fiddles and sibling harmony. The Dallas-based
five-piece presents a unique Americana blend of
Western Swing, Jazz-influenced Swing,
Country, Texas-Style Fiddling, and Western
music.
“We differentiate our music as ‘Progressive
Western Swing’ from simply ‘Western Swing’
because we aren’t trying to sound just like Bob
Wills,” Grace Quebe explains. “Instead, we
continue his vision, playing the style he
pioneered in an authentic way by incorporating
new genres and songs, interpreting them using
our own unique voice through Country
instrumentation.”
The band’s stripped-down acoustic
instrumentation breathes new life into seasoned
sounds once found in Texas dance halls and
honky-tonks. Grace continues, “To us,
preserving the tradition of Western Swing isn’t
about keeping something alive like a relic.
Western Swing has always been about
innovation.”
Innovation has led the sisters to channel the
musical connection between danceability and
emotiveness, combining old sounds with new
feelings and old feelings with new sounds. It’s
not nostalgia that drives the band as purveyors
of Western Swing, but the aspiration to take the
music back to its roots and sustain the spirit of
Swing.
Combine the musical stylings of The Mills
Brothers, Ray Price, Count Basie, Willie
Nelson, and you have none other than The
Quebe Sisters.
