Do The Haden Triplets have some sort of supernatural sibling power that enables them to harmonize so well together? Or can that talent be attributed more to the fact that they grew up in a musical family and have each played in a wide variety of bands over the years? Probably mostly the latter, but I’d like to think there’s some sort of magic at play when sisters Rachel, Tanya, and Petra Haden sing together.

Those voices are on display throughout The Haden Triplets’ latest release The Family Songbook, which sees the sisters taking on everything from The Carter Family to Kanye West to songs written by their grandfather. One of the standouts of the album is a lovely rendition of “Every Time I Try”, a song originally performed by Spain and written by the triplets’ brother Josh Haden.

Check out the video for “Every Time I Try” below.
