Win Tickets to the Last Sanctuary Concert of the Season

The Burns Sisters perform and the concert offers ice cream and $1 CDs.

The Sanctuary Concert Series and Chatham Patch have teamed up to offer two pairs of tickets to see The Burns Sisters in the last Sanctuary Concert of the 2010-2011 season.

The Burns Sisters are made up of Annie, Marie and Jeannie (the seventh, eighth and ninth of 12 children). The sisters come to the Sanctuary Concert Series on a night off from their current tour with Arlo Guthrie.

Together the sisters have released eight albums as a group, and each of them have released individual albums as well. Their music has been called a "blend of sweet vocals, countrified pop-rock, and diary-inspired tales of longing, love, loss, regret and affirmation," according to the Syracuse New Times.
