:o   :o  :o
That's all I can really say!  The arrangement and the harmonies were fantastic!

I heard it today to!  I really like it!! I wish them the best of luck with the group!! (but it doesn't sound like they need it!!) :) They did a really nice job!!

Two more songs up at the same place.

I'm really confused.  I went to the website and yes, there are two more songs, but I cannot get any of them to play.

Try using a different browser.  The player won't work for certain ones.

If you can't find them there they also uploaded them to sound cloud.

Beautiful harmony!  :) Thanks for the links everyone!  8)

Still learning about Lisa Nolan while missing Nicky Lewis (of the Bluebelles). I pray Nicky is OK.

In the Spirit Radio podcast (posted by White Rose) Rebecca does most of the talking for the group and speaks first when asked about her path into music. Lynn speaks at 14:30 thru 15:30 minutes followed by Lisa.

Wait a minute. :o I notice something on the second picture you've posted recently. It's a jazz guitar, right? If Lynn is a guitarist, does it really belong to her?

I'm guessing it does.

  I like all those pics....Lynn looks like she fits right in. I hope they come to the US  sometime.   ;)

The Babylon Sisters' web site says that they have "a focus on a capella singing". But that is not what I heard when I listened to two of their three posted songs! I wonder if they really know the meaning of that term.

If you listened to their radio podcast, you'll see that they do sing acapella.  They also mentioned that they will do some instrumentals too every now and then. 

Eeh, saying they’re going to focus on a certain type of music doesn’t mean they’ll exclude everything else. As Lynn and Rebecca were/are both in Anuna I’m betting they’re pretty familiar with what a capella means. ;) Besides, it’s just three demo songs on their site, nothing I would judge their entire career over.

Yes, I realize they can and do sing other things, too. I just thought it strange that a group that focuses on a cappella (the preferred spelling, BTW!) music would use two-out-of-three accompanied songs for their demos. After all, demos are designed to attract interested people to the music of the group, and anyone interested in a cappella music who came to the site expecting to hear a new group singing that type of music would be somewhat surprised, to say the least.

But all that said, whether a cappella or not, they do sing very nicely and harmonize well together. I hope my comments were not taken as a criticism of their singing, just of the way they represent themselves to the musical world.

Perfectly valid point. It’s a new group, figuring all that kind of stuff out takes time.

  I've been following Babylon Sisters on FB from the start and I'm really liking what I hear. Now they need some good gigs...... and a few shows in the USA!  :D

I really like their songs!

Lynn just gets prettier and prettier over time.

The Bayblon Sisters are really rockin'!

I know that these girls are singing near the pool table. Who's the one on the right holding the stick?

That's Lynn.
 :)

I see. ;) If I were part of the group, I can beatbox.

Hi everyone!  Lynn's group, Babylon Sisters, has just released their EP!  You can purchase it from their online store (http://babylonsisters.net/?page_id=181).

Abslutely wonderful. Thank you.
