A striking female vocal trio from Ithaca, NY, Five2 captivates listeners with lush three-part harmonies, poignant songwriting, and one guitar played in an uncommon style. A performance by these three women exudes warmth, rare musical chemistry, and a love of folk, country, jazz and pop. The group, which features vocalist/guitarist Uniit Carruyo (formerly of Sim Redmond Band) and vocalists, sisters Charisse Lucente and Yvette Lucente, released its debut CD, Sweet End, on ITown Records in the Summer 2006. Sweet End was re-issued on the Japanese label Vivid Sound in the Fall of 2006.
Sweet End, produced by Kevin Kinsella (of acclaimed Reggae band John Brown’s Body,) gave Five2 the opportunity to realize their dream of making a fully produced record and working with some of Ithaca’s finest musicians. A beautifully executed homage to classic country, folk, pop, old time, and jazz, Sweet End was built on inspired vocals and well-written songs, the result diverse, touching, and timeless.
Five2 came together in late 2003, after appearing together as harmony singers for Kevin Kinsella. The three women, who forged an instant bond the day they met, have much in common: South American heritage, a love of harmony singing, admiration for one another and her talents, and a height of 5 feet 2 inches. This bond comes across in every live performance as well as the new CD.
