Sisters Natalie Haas (cello) and Brittany Haas (fiddle) began their musical lives together, filling their childhood home with Bach suites and old-time tunes alike. It was on their own, however, that they both arrived as virtuosi and composers at the highest levels of contemporary string music.
Natalie trained at the Julliard School with Fred Sherry and has toured with Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser as a duo for over 23 years and with Mark O'Connor as a member of his Appalachia Waltz Trio. As a studio musician, she has been a guest artist on over 100 albums.
Brittany began touring with Darol Anger’s Republic of Strings at the age of fourteen. Following graduation from Princeton University, Brittany has worked with Crooked Still, Hawktail, Dave Rawlings Machine, Live from Here, and more, including performing on Late Night with Dave Letterman and Saturday Night Live.
Fans of acoustic music can hardly mention one musician without referencing the other's work. With HAAS, these singular musicians finally perform together as a duo for the first time. From Nashville to Norway, the Celtic Isles to California, Natalie and Brittany have absorbed, adapted, and made their own world of music. The result? HAAS.
