Alisa Walker
The Redhead Express is an American country music band consisting of four sisters: Kendra (lead singer, songwriter and guitarist), Alisa (second lead and baritone singer who plays fiddle and mandolin), LaRae (banjo, dobro and guitar, and sings tenor harmony), and Meghan Walker (bass and tenor harmony). History The Walker sisters are from Palmer, Alaska, where they formed a family band with their three brothers and their parents, which they voted to call "Redhead Express" because most of them are redheads. In 2007, motivated by their love of music, the Walkers decided to sell their belongings, purchase an RV, a trailer, and travel across the contiguous United States to perform. Since then, the Walker family has done hundreds of shows during their tours, including at state and county fairs, and festivals. Gradually, the four sisters became the stars of the group, with their parents taking managerial positions, and their brothers formed a band called the Walker Brothers. Career ...
