Quebe Sisters Band

About Me

When Grace, Sophia and Hulda Quebe (pronounced kway-bee) raise their fiddles to play and sing their vintage-style three-part harmony, audiences are mesmerized. Add the swinging rhythm guitar of 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 Ft. Worth, Texas based group performs, and they've been around! Highlights include the Grand Ole Opry, the Kennedy Center, NYC’s Lincoln Center as well as festivals & concert halls across North America. When they launch into a western swing classic (Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys), a swing standard (Benny Goodman), vintage country shuffle (Ray Price), a cowboy anthem (Sons of the Pioneers) or a hard driving Texas fiddle tune, the QSB's music reaches out to a wide variety of audiences. Recently named Group of the Year by the Academy of Western Artists and recipient of the Crescendo Award by the Western Music Association, the QSB is performing coast to coast in support of their latest FiddleTone records release, TIMELESS. "The Quebe Sisters Band simply stopped me in my tracks when I heard them the first time. Their blend of swing with a dash of contemporary color is unique in today's music world. They project a cannonball of stage presence and man can they play." - JIMMY BUFFETT "Imagine if you will the three prettiest girls you've ever seen playing fiddles and singing everything from western swing to jazz to bluegrass in virtuoso fashion and you have the Quebe Sisters Band. Get ready to be amazed!" - RAY BENSON of ASLEEP at the WHEEL
