About CocoRosie
American freakfolk pioneers, sisters Sierra and Bianca Casady, performing under the name CocoRosie, started their musical career together in 2003 after many years of separation. The duo combines elements of pop, blues, electronica, hip hop and opera and is known for its original poetics. They benefit from the contrast of their vocal expressions – Sierra, possessing an operatic musical background, accompanies her parts with her harp playing, while Bianca, as a multifaceted pop vocalist, crosses the boundaries of singing, animal talk and her typical whining.
Sierra Casady is a classically trained opera singer and theater actress, and Bianca Casady is a poet, theater director and visual artist. Together, the sisters use music, theatrical movement practices, fashion and contemporary art to create work that reflects the beauty and sadness of the collective experience. Through their art, they advocate for human rights, challenge societal norms and often play with various taboos. In the past, they have collaborated with names such as Anohni of Antony and the Johnsons, the Kronos Quartet and avant-garde theatre director Robert Wilson.
