JOSEPH
with Becca Mancari
at First Avenue
first-avenue.com

A blink of the eye, and it’s already been a decade. Sister-act JOSEPH is celebrating 10 years together.

Yes, of course, we were there for Joseph, ten years ago, in Nov 2014 and wrote, “Portland’s Joseph are three sisters, Natalie, Allison, and Meegan. They harmonize as only very close family members can achieve. Songs on their set included tracks from Native Dreamer Kin, which came out early in March 2014. I got the impression that the sisters were very fun to be around.”

Becca Mancari to open.
