Larkin Poe
Gritty slide guitar and powerhouse sister harmonies that modernize Southern roots. It is raw, stomp-heavy blues rock for open roads and late nights.

Larkin Poe, led by sisters Rebecca and Megan Lovell, represents a pivotal bridge between traditional Southern roots music and modern alternative rock. Emerging from the acoustic folk trio The Lovell Sisters, the duo transitioned into a heavier, electric-focused sound that emphasizes slide guitar and vocal harmonies.
Their sound identity is defined by the interplay between Rebecca's gritty rhythm guitar and Megan's melodic, often distorted lap steel, creating a 'big rock' sound from a relatively minimalist ensemble. Culturally, they have become torchbearers for a new generation of blues, gaining significant traction through viral performance videos that showcase their technical prowess. Their career arc shows a steady move toward self-production and independent creative control, culminating in Grammy-nominated work like 'Venom & Faith'. They are frequently associated with the Nashville Americana scene but maintain a harder rock edge that connects them to peers like Samantha Fish and Tyler Bryant. Critical consensus highlights their ability to modernize the Allman Brothers' dual-lead legacy for a contemporary audience.
