The Sibleys

Ali Pearl (Fall 2016)
Wonder Valley

The Palms owners, the Sibley siblings, also make music and perform in their Mother’s quirky rock/folk act, The Sibleys.

On occasional Saturday evenings, The Sibleys take stage at their very own Palms. Laura and James both sing while Laura plays guitar and James plays drums. Their mother Mary writes the lyrics, which adds yet another level of familial charm as the siblings sing their mother’s words in their family restaurant and bar in the middle of nowhere. Watching them perform feels a lot like being let in on a family secret that might feel somewhat like your own family secrets, but louder. Take a few of the lyrics from their song “It’s Your Family,’ for example:

It’s your family and we’re coming to see you/we’re calling ahead just like you asked us to/I know you won’t answer the phone/but you’re probably home… quick quick hide the cats cause you know we like to play with guns we’ll have such a good time/maybe we can borrow some money if you have any/ we’ll have such a good time we know you like nobody else does

The Sibleys have released two full-length albums, both recorded live at The Palms. CD’s can be purchased at The Palms, and streamed at, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Kcz_rxD5G4BmcWpHNMhjw/playlists?shelf_id=3579731707244514300&view=50&sort=dd
