Sister Speak - Rise Up For Love

.
Sister Speak is primarily comprised of two women (lead vocalist, guitarist) Sherri Anne and drummer Lisa Viegas. Although originally from Canada, this act is now based in San Diego, CA.

Many of the songs on Rise Up For Love are said to be inspired by Anne's recent recuperation from a significant pelvis break. Being laid up like that can certainly slow a person down. However, it can also be a blessing in disguise as it grants talented people the clean break, if you will, from many routine activities so that almost all focus can be directed at artistic pursuits , such as writing.

What's resulted is a strong, folk-influenced pop album. "Lady Love," for instance, nicely combines mainly acoustic instrumentation with lovely vocal harmonies for a pretty tune. At its most intense, as during "Mirror (I)," Sister Speak can come off a little like Fleetwood Mac during its 70s heyday.

Sister Speak is a fitting name for this outfit because Rise Up For Love is notable for its musical outspokenness.
