Artist
The Little Women Band is: Olivia Arciero, 21, Dominique Arciero, 19, Jillian Arciero, 18, and Gabriela Arciero, 15. Born in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania the girls grew up listening to country music, which was influenced by their parents who recognized the girls' love for music early on. The group was formed in the fall of 1999. A 10-year-old Jillian had been taking guitar lessons for a few years when she started to write her own songs. When her guitar teacher, offered to record Jillian's songs in his garage studio, the other girls eagerly joined in with background harmonies. All of the girls, however, had been singing and acting since they were very young. Olivia's influence on the other three girls sparked a love for performing before they reached grade school. They soon discovered how much they enjoyed singing together and began experimenting with four-part harmony, making up and singing harmony parts to songs on the radio. Olivia expressed herself more through songwriting and Dominique began writing music on the piano. Gabby, at the age of 9, started playing an old set of drums their mom bought at an auction, and soon fell in love with it. Wherever they went they'd get up and sing a capella, whether it be at a party or a local open mike. In the winter of 1999 the band met Marty Strayer, a musician and sound engineer with whom they co-wrote their first (as they put it) "REAL" CD. This was just the beginning of many more collaborations with producers and recording engineers
