The Carrivick Sisters are twins Laura and Charlotte Carrivick from South Devon, England, who perform as a musical duo.[1] They combine original songs, based on old stories, legends and folklore from their local area,[2] with American bluegrass and old-time music.

The Carrivick Sisters have been performing as a duo since 2006 and turned professional in 2007.[3] They were finalists for the BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Award in 2010.[4]

Their 2013 album Over the Edge featured Blair Dunlop on harmony vocals and, like their previous album From the Fields,[1][2] was produced by Josh Rusby (brother of folk singer Kate Rusby).[5]
