Dusty Porch Sisters

Based in Minneapolis, MN, the Dusty Porch Sisters arrange and play their own and traditional songs founded in the folk and bluegrass tradition. Their style is playful and interactive, creating an inviting experience for audience members. The "Dusites" mix lush three and four part vocal harmonies with playful melodies that have been known to quiet a noisy bar before making it erupt again in laughter and stomping feet.

Originally a collaboration of women who wanted their own space to make music, the Dusty Porch Sisters began playing for small crowds and festivals in early 2010 for the pure joy of sharing music with others.They were greeted by enthusiastic audiences who kept cheering for more! The Dusties were flattered and a little baffled, but were very happy to oblige. They continue to make and play music throughout the Twin Cities, encouraging others to do the same. The Dusty Porch Sisters is made up of the combined talents of five women; Anna Cioffi on mandolin, Stephanie Dalager on fiddle, Ashley Hanson on ukulele, Katie Peterson on guitar, and Leu Solomon on bass and percussion.
