OXFORD – This Saturday, Dec. 18, at 7:30 p.m., 6 On The Square (6OTS) is proud to present The Burns Sisters. This special musical holiday show, that mixes traditions old and new with the famous Burns’ spunk and spirit, will bring together all ages in the joy and wonders of the season.

Growing up in Binghamton in a large family of twelve children, Marie, Jeannie and Annie’s family all sang together. Their father, the late John Burns, had an impressive career in politics, which developed a family culture that believed in standing up for the rights of all people. They still walk their talk and bring their beliefs, values and ideals into their music.

Marie is the soprano and sings high harmony. She plays rhythm mandolin and writes on guitar; loves the old-time sounds of early country and bluegrass and her lyrically thoughtful originals reflect this.

Tallest of the sisters, alto Jeannie loves rhythm and blues, and rock. She sings low harmonies. She plays rhythm acoustic guitar and flat picks a bit in the “closet.”
