Folk-pop duo Chasing Lovely performs tonight in Cedar Rapids

CEDAR RAPIDS - Sisters Chloe and Taylor Turner, who make up the folk-pop duo Chasing Lovely, entertained students on Thursday at Roosevelt Middle School in Cedar Rapids in advance of their concert tonight.

Chasing Lovely takes the stage at 7 p.m. today at Matthew 25, 201 Third Ave. SW, Cedar Rapids. Tickets are $20 in advance at chasinglovely.com or $25 at the door.

Chasing Lovely combines haunting harmonies, powerful melodies and insightful lyrics to create a captivating acoustic performance. The duo's latest EP, 'Things We Don't Talk About,” was released in July.

The Korean-American sisters, who grew up in Minneapolis, moved to Nashville in 2011 and spent six years cutting their teeth in Music City before relocating to Atlanta in April of this year.

The duo's mission is to provoke thought, promote understanding and capture both glimmers of light and darkness as they share the deeply moving human experience through song.

Doors for tonight's show open at 6 p.m.
