Fresh off the first Rankin Family reunion tour in January & February 2007, the sweet, angelic, Celtic-influenced voices of Raylene, Heather, & Cookie Rankin are back together & looking forward to another Maritime Christmas tour!
For many fans, the most memorable aspect of a Rankin Family performance was the exquisite three part harmonies of the sisters.
They've sold over than two million records, won five Juno Awards, over a dozen East Coast Music Awards and a couple of Canadian Country Music Awards.
In 1997, when the Rankin Family was on hiatus, the sisters seized the opportunity to create a holiday album with astounding versatility, universal appeal and a reverence for tradition. Do You Hear: Christmas with Heather, Cookie & Raylene Rankin remains one of the best selling Christmas recordings in Canada and the sister’s holiday concerts continue to sell out from coast to coast.
Whether performing at a theatre in Vancouver or a local ceilidh in Mabou, the Rankin Sisters continue to amaze audiences with their trademark step-dancing and Celtic-Canadian, roots-influenced pop music.
