December 29, 20196 yr comment_814699 ^^^ Basically 3 sisters (and later a 4th IIRC) from NH who's dad wanted some kind of stardom so forced them to play and managed them.....

So the father forced them to practice constantly & play, and was quite restrictive in allowing them to do much else for much of their time. Report
