Webb Sisters - Behind the scenes

Add to My Profile | More Videos
Charley and Hattie grew up in Kent, England in a large family consisting of a banjo player, a comedian, a hairdresser, four drummers, a cake specialist at Fortnum and Mason, a concert pianist, and a tennis coach. Their childhood of family wagon driving holidays had bohemian soundtracks and unusual destinations. This was peppered with jamming in family bands and late car rides into London nightlife to collect their Dad and band mates from club circuit gigs.
The sisters began writing and playing music at an early age, learning instruments and singing in bands together. Charley took to the guitar, piano, sax, clarinet and drums and Hattie, the harp and piano.
They recorded an album of their songs in Nashville Tennessee, 'Piece of Mind', and travelled between to LA and London playing at gigs and parties, with Charley's guitar and Hattie's 22 string lap harp.
The girls signed a Publishing Deal with Windswept Pacific Publishing and then a record deal with Universal Records in the sunshine of Los Angeles, California. Heading back to London to make their second album, 'Daylight Crossing' they recorded with legendary musicians Steve Gadd and Pino Palladino at London's Abbey Road and Sarm Hook End Studios.
In 2007, the girls, as independent artists, are flying solo.
