The Nields

The Nields have been lighting up the indie circuit since 1991, originally traveling the continent as a five-piece band. Today, sisters Nerissa Nields and Katryna Nields perform as a duo often compared to Indigo Girls and The Roches. The Chicago Tribune reports, “As the work of the Everly Brothers or the McGarrigle Sisters has amply demonstrated, there are few sounds as sublime as close harmonies rendered by siblings… their inimitable vocal blend is a disarming mix of clean folk harmonies and clenched Generation-X angst.”
The Nields have been lauded for their gorgeous, lilting harmonies, their thoughtful songwriting, and the warmth and humor they bring to every performance. “A masterful mix of modern folk with an alternative edge” (Minneapolis Star Tribune), while The Austin Chronicle praises their “beautifully sweet vocal harmonies… infectious stuff.”
Their newest release, Circle of Days, their twenty-first album, finds the sisters as creative and reflective as ever. Inspired by daily walks during the pandemic and the quiet rhythm of the seasons, the album unfolds as a musical calendar with each song rooted in a particular moment in the year, capturing the emotional landscape that comes with it.
From the introspective stillness of winter to the brightness of summer, Circle of Days explores the passage of time with honesty and heart. The songs hold both hope and uncertainty, weaving together personal stories and broader reflections on change, loss, and resilience. It’s a natural extension of what The Nields have always done so well: pairing memorable melodies with lyrics that feel lived-in and true.
Join us for an evening of harmony, humor, and songs that stay with you, performed by artists who have spent decades honing not just their sound, but their connection to the audience.
