THE FIREY STRING SISTAS! - Recording Campaign
FIREY STRING SISTAS! is an independent and self contained ensemble of stellar musicians that celebrate the power, beauty and creativity of women. Our mission is to inspire, uplift and motivate our audiences to participate with us in making the world a more harmonious and humane place. We are committed to doing so through our recordings, educational activities and memorable performances that endure far beyond the stage.
Firey String Sistas! founded by Nioka Workman, features an array of prolific female musicians including Nioka on cello, Marlene Rice on violin, vocalist/pianist Mala Waldron, and drummer Camille Gainer -Jones.
After the release our debut CD, “That's What She Said” to critical acclaim, we have begun to record our sophomore album. Our new musical collection will include commentary on the current political climate in the United States, as well as a variety of personal and collective works, all thought provoking and immediately enjoyable. We would like to send a big shout-out of thanks and gratitude to our friends and family for assisting us.
We are proud of what we have been able to accomplish so far, but we need your assistance to continue our mission of spreading inspiration through music. Costs of a quality, independent group CD are daunting and we are requesting your financial support to help us to continue our work in the studio.
Our goal for this campaign is to reach the $8,000.00 mark. With your participation, we will offset the formidable costs of recording, mixing , editing, and mastering, in addition to packaging and manufacturing the physical CD.
Please consider making as generous a contribution as you can to our project. Thank You for taking the time to review our campaign. We hope you will partner with us in bringing this next musical gem to the world.
Press about the Firey String Sistas!
Our very first CD;' That's What She Said' was received with raving reviews from fans and press. All About Jazz critic Hrayr Attarian wrote,
" That's What She Said is a charming and delectable work by five supremely talented musicians. It is simultaneously accessible and sophisticated, poignant and erudite and, as such, should have a wide appeal. It certainly whets the appetite for more to come from this exceptional collective". (February 07, 2017)
