Seattle’s Ladies was born from a shared love of Christmas between the three stellar vocalists, each an ascendant artist in her own right. When Lydia Ramsey, Erin Austin (OK Sweetheart), and Miranda Zickler (Kuinka) sing together, their voices ring out with a glowing warmth, clear and bright as a deep winter’s night. Mezzosoprano Ramsey handles the high harmonies and Zickler, the alto, takes on the low harmonies, while Contralto Austin pirouettes melodically between them. Each vocalist has a unique, captivating timber; together in harmony they create a sound profoundly transporting and timeless.
In the fall of 2018, the trio released “Ladies, It’s Cold Outside”, their reinterpretation of the controversial Holiday classic. This led to a feature on Seattle NPR affiliate KNKX and inclusion in the Apple Music Holiday Playlist. Their version of the song was streamed over 500K time in the first month alone.
For 2019, Lades have once again teamed with producer Andy Park (Death Cab for Cutie, Ciara) and a crew of top-flight guest musicians to bring you a new batch of twinkling holiday tunes, just in time for all your nog-sipping, present-wrapping, soirée-swirling needs. Happy Holidays!
