The band, who recently toured with James Bay and head out with Michael Kiwanuka next month, have confirmed European headline shows in February. Tickets for all shows will go on sale this Friday. Owing to a scheduling clash, Joseph’s London Union Chapel show has been moved to 7th February (all tickets remain valid although refunds from point of purchase will be available for anyone who is unable to make the rescheduled date). Joseph recently performed on Conan and CBS Saturday Morning and will appear on The Ellen Degeneres show this week. The sisters were also tipped on Vice’s Ones To Watch site and completed a Daytrotter session.

There is nothing like the sound of siblings singing together. Whether it’s the Beach Boys, the Everly Brothers or First Aid Kit, absorbing the same breathing rhythms and speech patterns adds an element to vocal harmonies that can be pure magic. With the release of ‘I’m Alone, No You’re Not’ (ATO Records), the mesmerising, hypnotic sound of the trio known as Joseph – sisters Allison, Meegan, and Natalie Closner – joins this elite company. Choosing their name in deference to their grandfather Jo, and the tiny Oregon town of Joseph where he lived, Natalie Closner and her younger twin sisters Meegan and Allison, grew up in a musical household, but didn’t sing together until just a few years ago. Joseph officially formed when Natalie, an aspiring performer looking for a creative jolt, asked her sisters to form a band together. They quickly discovered their gift for songwriting and vocal alchemy. ‘I’m Alone, No You’re Not’ is a masterclass in pristine 3-part harmony, traversing melodies and rhythms that are indelible and ambitious. Lead single ‘White Flag’ is a cathartic rallying cry, with the sisters’ voices starting as a hum, then verging on a scream by the chorus. The anthemic album opener, ‘Canyon,’ channels Fleetwood Mac at their soaring finest. Elsewhere golden, shimmering pop songs are tucked next to the most delicate ballads: love lost and found, amplified by three unwavering voices.
