The Nields

The Nields have been lighting up the indie circuit since 1991, originally traveling the continent as a five-piece band. Today, sisters Nerissa and Katryna perform as a duo often compared to The Indigo Girls and The Roches. The Chicago Tribune reports, “As the work of the Everly Brothers or the McGarrigle Sisters has amply demonstrated, there are few sounds as sublime as close harmonies rendered by siblings. In the case of western Massachusetts folk rockers the Nields, the siblings are sisters Nerissa and Katryna Nields, and their inimitable vocal blend is a disarming mix of clean folk harmonies and clenched Generation-X angst.”

The Nields have been lauded for their gorgeous, lilting sibling harmonies, wise, classic folk/pop songs, hilarious onstage banter, and generosity and warmth in performance and engagement with their fans. The Minneapolis Star Tribune calls their music “a masterful mix of modern folk with an alternative edge,” and The Austin Chronicle raves, “If there’s one constant here, it’s The Nields sisters beautifully sweet vocal harmonies that sound eerily like the Roches singing Lush in a really big room. It's infectious stuff.”

Their newest release, Circle of Days, their twenty-first album, finds the sisters as creative and reflective as ever. Inspired by daily walks during the pandemic and the quiet rhythm of the seasons, the album unfolds as a musical calendar, with each song rooted in a particular moment in the year and capturing its emotional landscape.

From the introspective stillness of winter to the brightness of summer, Circle of Days explores the passage of time with honesty and heart. The songs hold both hope and uncertainty, weaving together personal stories and broader reflections on change, loss, and resilience. It’s a natural extension of what The Nields have always done so well: pairing memorable melodies with lyrics that feel lived-in and true.
