We're so excited that the Burney Sisters are making their Reeves debut on Saturday, April 5! Tickets are on sale now at ReevesTheater.com.

The Burney Sisters are a sibling duo redefining indie-folk with soulful harmonies, heartfelt lyrics, and magnetic stage presence. Hailing from the Midwest, Emma and Bella Burney blend folk, rock, and Americana into a sound that’s both timeless and fresh. Inspired by artists like The Avett Brothers, Bonnie Raitt, and HAIM, their music bridges generations.

Emma’s talents on piano, violin, guitar, and cello pair seamlessly with Bella’s basslines, showcasing versatility beyond their years. Their songs explore themes of love, resilience, and self-discovery, resonating with fans of all ages.

After eight years of performing across the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean, the sisters relocated to Huntsville, Alabama, to immerse themselves in the rich music scenes of Muscle Shoals and Nashville. With a debut EP set for 2025, they’re ready to share their artistry with the world, bringing their electrifying live performances and unique sound to new audiences.

A Home for Music

Most people who grew up near Elkin, NC have fond memories of the Reeves. The beautiful Art -Deco movie house was originally opened in 1941, showing films and news reels of the day. Later, it was converted into the Elk Twin, also a movie theater, before eventually falling into disrepair. The people of Elkin knew this place was too special to lose, but times were tough and funds were low. Years passed and the Reeves sat empty, slowly being improved and preserved by dedicated citizens.

Finally, in 2013, the Reeves was up for sale, and three long-time Elkin residents decided to buy it and turn it into a live music venue. Employing and partnering with as many local craftspeople and manufacturers as possible, they fully restored the original building facade, and rebuilt the sign and marquee to the specifications of the original architectural plans. The inside was converted into a modern industrial music hall, with great acoustics and superior sound quality as the primary goal. The lobby also functions as a cafe and bar, featuring locally-sourced meats, dairy, and produce as well as local craft beer and wine.

The Reeves Theater & Cafe owners and staff hope the space will serve as a home for music, showcasing not only the rich local musical traditions of the Yadkin Valley and Foothills, but also the talents of artists from around the country and the world. The Reeves is a symbol of the strength and diversity of this beautiful region, the richness of tradition, and the dedication of the local community to art and music.
