Sister Sadie
7:30pm @
Pruis Hall, Ball State University
1000 N McKinley Ave, Muncie, IN 47306
Cost: $19.50 advance, $24.50 at door, Youth $10 Just a spontaneous jam session at Nashville’s Station Inn between a few friends. All women, all seasoned players out to make a little noise on a weeknight. What happened next was alchemy: the room lit up, the crowd roared and by the time the night was over, something had shifted. The landscape of bluegrass, and the women who played it, would never be the same.
A GRAMMY-nominated, IBMA-sweeping, Grand Ole Opry-starring force. But for all the stages they played and accolades they earned, they were still often reduced to a single line: all-female bluegrass band. It was true, yet reductive. Because Sister Sadie was never about labels. They were about the music. They are about the music. The stories. The fire. And the unrelenting drive to speak their truth through a tradition that hadn’t always made room for it.
From gut-punch ballads to high-octane instrumental parts, All Will Be Well is the album Sister Sadie was always meant to make. Not for the industry. Not for the silencers. But for the women they’ve become and the world ready to listen. Because yes, Sister Sadie is still a bluegrass band. But they’re also more. They are country with claws. Americana with muscle. Harmony-driven and hellbent on telling the truth. And they’re not asking for permission anymore. They're making room. They're taking names. And they're just getting started.

Now, after eight years, the break is over and Solas is back and ready to celebrate their 30th Anniversary! The musical adventure continues in 2025.
