Yellow Sisters – biography Yellow Sisters are four singers, four hearts, four souls, four voices, four ways to share emotions and create music. Yellow Sisters is a female vocal band - a cappella sound illusionists… Their music undulates between jazz, soul, funk, RnB, reggae and world music styles. Yellow Sisters are regular performers not only on the music and theatre festival circuit, in concert halls, clubs, theatres, galleries and castles, but also at city and town celebrations and private and company parties. One of the most significant shows to date was Yellow Sisters’ performance at the opening ceremony of the One World Film Festival in Prague in February 2006, where ex-president Mr. Vaclav Havel was also in attendance to present the Homo Homini Prize for extraordinary contribution to human rights. Another momentous occasion was the band’s live TV appearance at TyTy (a Television Awards ceremony) in April 2006 or participation on international jazz festival European Jazz Nights in Stockholm, Sweden. The band has had its current line-up since 2005, the same year Yellow Sisters recorded their first demo CD. In 2006 Yellow Sisters became finalists in the Colours Talents competition, organized by Indie Records and Colours of Ostrava Festival; they eventually went on in June that year to win the prestigious first prize, which gave them the opportunity to record their debut album. Yellow Sisters album, to be called Singalana, was realesed on 21st December 2006. Yellow Sisters will be touring the Czech Republic and Slovakia on their Singalana Tour in spring 2007 to coincide with the album’s release. Soon after will follow appearances at international festivals; the band will then approach Europe and other continents with their music. Yellow Sisters offer a 60 – 80 minute set with a colourful program, consisting of genre-defying original songs with African inspiration. Yellow Sisters: Antonia Nyass (Eterity) Bara Vaculikova (Yellow Family, Forbidden Fruit, Funky Feast, Levelrise) Lena (Yellow Family, Babylon Station, DC Band, Tomato 22) Lucie Hawa Goldin (Eterity, dancer and choreogrpher in TidiTade) Antonia and Hawa met in a band called Eterity, where they discovered a mutual love of experimenting with voice and rhythm. Both have strong connections with Africa, which is reflected in their art work and particularly in the way they work with rhythm, and in the depth and emotion of their lyrics and vocals. Lena and Bara have collaborated as a vocal duo on various projects. They originally formed Yellow Sisters as an a cappella trio while travelling throughout Europe with their street-performance show. After a few music missions (Berlin, Madrid, Las Palmas – Gran Canaria), which culminated in Gambia with the artistic project Czech-Gambian Connection, they united with Antonia and Hawa and gave a new dimension to Yellow Sisters. In Summer 2006 Yellow Sisters joined another project Senegal Meets Prague, inspired by African traditional music and dance, and performed at shows at the Ponec Theatre in Prague and at the Bazilika Theatre in Ceske Budejovice.
