The Sweetback Sisters

The Magnolia Music and Medicine Show is committed to offering family-friendly musical entertainment that recalls the simpler joys of yesterday. Sweetback Sisters Emily Miller and Zara Bode may not be blood relations, but their precise, family-style harmonies recall the best of country music from the Everlys to The Judds, as well as the spirited rockabilly energy of Wanda Jackson, one of the band's role models. Like the artists they admire, the Sweetbacks are concerned with the traditional subjects of heartbreak, revenge, remorse and staying strong in the face of relationships gone wrong, albeit with a contemporary sensibility. "We're a renegade retro band that mixes up country, swing and honky tonk," explains Bode. "Sometimes what we deliver is straight out of the '50s; other times it's BR549 meets The B52s."

The band combines classic country, swing, honky tonk and old-time music for their unique take on American roots music. The Magnolia Music and Medicine Show is proud to welcome them for what promises to be a great evening of music. The show starts at 6:00 p.m. To purchase tickets online, visit http://www.magnoliamusicandmedicineshow.com/Online-Tickets.html.
