"Leaving Brooklyn, coming back as visitors and discovering both familiarity and estrangement inspired The Chapin Sisters' new song."
Abigail and Lily chat with BK Reader today about "Bergen Street," their first new music in five years.
"Growing up, art and music permeated Lily and Abigail’s lives. With GRAMMY-winning singer Tom Chapin as a father and folk-rock musician Harry Chapin — of ‘Cat’s in the Cradle’ fame — as an uncle, it’s no surprise that music accompanied the sisters’ artistic lives."

The first thing that jumped out at me when I saw this video was what I call "the twirls." It gave me that mellow NYC on a sunny morning when not everyone is up yet feeling. If you know, you know.
See the twirls in the music video for "Bergen Street" by The Chapin Sisters! Many thanks to The Bluegrass Situation for the premiere. More news soon!
P.S. It's National Siblings Day!
Back when he began recording 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘈 𝘛𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘦, J Hacha De Zola called to say he was collaborating with Fernando Vélez, an original member of the Dap-Kings.
I started to imagine what Fernando's musical contributions and sonic wisdom would bring to this record when paired up with J's distinctive style and point of view.
Jedd Beaudoin of Strange Currency has already called 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘈 𝘛𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘦 the "spookiest make-out record of 2023 or any other other year," perfectly capturing what my thoughts had aspired to!
Hear "Stay Away" now. 𝘞𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘈 𝘛𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘦 arrives June 9 via Caballo Negro, distributed by Slow Start Records! Photos by Adrian Buckmaster.
Good day!
