The Pierces are a New York-based music band. The principal members are sisters Catherine Pierce and Allison Pierce, who originally hail from Birmingham, Alabama.Over the years, the girls have been compared to well-known artists like The Roches, Tori Amos , Sarah McLachlan , Shawn Colvin , the Indigo Girls and Sheryl Crow.
Born two years apart in Birmingham, Alabama, the Pierce sisters grew up in a family of seven. They traveled frequently and received home-schooling from their self-described hippie parents. Their father played the guitar in various bands, while their mother was a painter. Exposed to music and arts at an early age, the Pierce sisters grew up listening to Joni Mitchell and Simon & Garfunkel. As kids, they were encouraged to explore their creative side and would perform at parties, weddings and churches. Allison started dancing at age three, and both sisters are accomplished ballerinas.
