We got to walk the RED carpet at the premiere of “Just One More” in Franklin, Tennessee— an upcoming film releasing through Angel Studios.
Now before anyone gets too excited… no, we’re not in the movie 😄 We were just there to watch and support, thanks to a mutual friend connected to the production.
But we’ll tell you what—standing there in front of that big Angel backdrop, all dressed up, felt pretty special. Getting to meet some of the actors and folks involved in the film made it even more fun, and seeing the movie before it’s released made the whole night something we won’t forget.
It’s not every day a bluegrass band from Alaska ends up at a movie premiere in Tennessee… but we sure had a good time.
And y’all really do want to keep an eye out for this one—“Just One More” has a powerful story, the kind that sticks with you after the credits roll.
It’s set to release on May 14 on Angel Studios, and we’d definitely recommend giving it a watch.

🎈🎉HAPPY 15th BIRTHDAY AKULINA!!!!🥳🎂
It’s Akulina’s birthday today and we’re celebrating BIG over here in the Alaskan Sunnyside Sisters 🎻💛
Akulina is our guitar player and the one who has been such a steady part of this band from the beginning. She’s not just in the music with us—she helps lead it. She’s the one who keeps us grounded when things get chaotic, the one who knows the songs inside and out, and the one who somehow always makes everything sound a little more like “us.”
Being in a band together means a lot of long days, travel, rehearsals, and figuring things out as we go… and she’s always right there in it with us, showing up with heart and focus every time 🎶
Akulina, we’re so grateful for you—your guitar playing, your leadership, and even the way you’ll correct us mid-song when we try to speed things up too much 😄🎸 You really are the glue in this whole thing, whether you like hearing that or not!
We’ve grown up a lot together through music, and it’s pretty special getting to share a stage with your sister and best friend at the same time.
So go ahead and enjoy your day… we might let you pick every song today (no promises though 😏🎶)
Happy birthday big sis!❤️

Happy 12th birthday, Cherylann 💜
On stage, you’re steady and focused, holding everything together in a way most people don’t even notice—but we do.
Thank you for being you. For your quiet strength, your kind heart, and the way you just keep going no matter what.
We love you so much, and we’re really grateful you’re our sister and our bass player.
We wouldn’t be the same without you
Happy Birthday Chen Chen ❤️❤️😁😘🥳

Wow… we are honestly blown away.
In less than 12 hours, y’all have helped us reach $27,000 toward our van. Some of you have even sent support directly, and we are just sitting here trying to take it all in.
Every single dollar — truly — makes a difference to us. It all adds up in a big way, and we don’t take any of it lightly.
Thank you for believing in us and what we’re doing. It means more than we can say.
And please don’t feel any pressure at all — just your support, your kind words, and coming out to hear us play already means the world to us.
But to those who have given… thank you. We carry that with us, and we won’t forget it.

It’s finally here—today’s the day! 🎻
We’ll be opening for The Isaacs this afternoon at the Clay County Agricultural Fair in Green Cove Springs!
Join us at 1 PM for a great afternoon of music. It’s a free concert, and ages 55+ get free admission to the fair today too, so it’s a perfect day to come on out.
It may be a little rainy, but that’s not going to stop us—we’ll be there singing either way! ☔🎶
The Isaacs are award-winning, Grammy-nominated artists and members of the Grand Ole Opry, known for their beautiful family harmonies.
We’d love to see y’all there—come spend the day with us! 🤍
