Sisters Morales
Texas
Sisters Morales were born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, spent the past 12 years in Houston, Texas and now live in the Hill Country-San Antonio area. They grew up around a musical and very Mexican family, which contributed to their diverse tastes in music.
They sang in Spanish before they sang in English. Their first performances included singing with mariachis in Mexican restaurants.
They went their separate ways after high school to pursue their own careers, which gained them individual notoriety and awards, but most importantly their own styles.
In 1989, Roberta went to visit Lisa to sing background vocals for a band Lisa put together. Within a month they knew combining their talents would allow them to create a unique sound. Both women are accomplished musicians and songwriters, each reflecting what she has gone though in her life, and both voices are very different, but their harmonies are strong and tight and sound as if they’re made up of the same voice.
The incredible talents of their band members round out the Sisters’ sound. David Spencer is one of Texas' finest guitar players. He also plays steel guitar and trades mariachi-style leads on acoustic with Roberta. Vicente Rodriguez keeps the backbeat solid and also adds percussion. Cornbread adds to the bottom end.
With a lot of hard work and determination the Sisters have built quite a following. Their performances are always described as "energetic, emotional and rockin"
