2x Grammy nominated, country/bluegrass ensemble Sister Sadie, will perform select dates this fall and will again hit the road early next year in an ongoing celebration of their June 2025 release, All Will Be Well. “What excites me most,” shared Deanie Richardson, fiddler and band co-founder, “is the All Will Be Well project was such a labor love, so to finally get to take these songs on the road feels like the reward.”
Following the New Year, the band will head south to Florida including a stint on the Country Music Cruise then ultimately up into the Midwest and Northeast to wrap February 2026.
On the heels of All Will Be Well, Sister Sadie was named June Spotlight Artist by No Depression and the Bluegrass Situation’s July Artist of the Month. Additionally, the band was voted first by the general public then by cruise patrons as one of three finalists to join the Cayamo Cruise, marking the band’s first appearance on the iconic music festival.
Last week at the International Bluegrass Music Association’s’ World of Bluegrass, the band racked up a handful of new awards including Rainy Miatke (Momentum Instrumentalist of the Year), Gena Britt and Deanie Richardson (Instrumental Recording of the Year), Jaelee Roberts (Song of the Year, Collaborative Recording of the Year and Gospel Recording of the Year).
“We’re grateful for the new doors that have opened,” said Gena Britt, banjo and co-founder. “From the recognition by No Depression and BGS to being asked to join Cayamo and the handful of IBMA awards; it’s amazing and we’re so happy to be doing this all together.”
Sister Sadie is Deanie Richardson (fiddle), Gena Britt (vocals, banjo), Jaelee Roberts (vocals, guitar), Dani Flowers (vocals, guitar), Rainy Miatke (vocals, mandolin) and Katie Blomarz-Kimball (vocals, bass).

About Sister Sadie
There was no master plan. No label strategy. Just a spontaneous jam at Nashville’s Station Inn between a few friends; seasoned players, all women, making a little noise. But something clicked. The room lit up, the crowd roared and Sister Sadie was born.
What started as an accidental band became a force. GRAMMY-nominated. IBMA-decorated. Opry-validated. But for all the accolades, they were often reduced to one line: an all-female bluegrass band. True. But never the point. Sister Sadie has always been about the music. The fire. The truth.
Their new album, All Will Be Well, is that truth – loud, fearless and free. You’ll hear echoes of bluegrass, but what rises is something bigger: country, Americana with muscle, gospel grit and raw storytelling.
From the haunting “Prodigal Daughter” to the swagger of “Do What You Want” and the aching beauty of “If I Don’t Have You,” these six women are not performing roles, they’re telling you who they are.
This is Sister Sadie, evolved: bold, bonded and braver than ever. They’re not asking for space. They’re taking it. And they’re just getting started.
