A PAIR of teenage super sisters who have become Inverclyde's newest girl band are playing at a well-known indie music festival today (Saturday). 

Eva and Grace Tedeschi - known as The Cords - will take to the stage at The Glasgow Weekender, which is presented by Scottish indie icons Belle and Sebastian. 

The event at SWG3 Galvanizers Yard will welcome artists including CMAT, The Vaselines, BIS, and The Joy Hotel to Glasgow for a two day-long musical celebration. 

Eva, 16, and Grace, 18, are set to appear on stage at 5.30pm before The Vaselines start their set at 6.30pm. 

The girls say they're really excited to be involved. 

Grace said: "It will be the biggest crowd we've played to so far, so it's an amazing opportunity."

The Cords have been very busy over the last few months and have a lot of gigs planned before the end of the year. 

Back in May, their single Rather Not Stay was played on twice on the Marc Riley show on BBC6 Music, and the team were so impressed that they invited the girls onto the show to perform live. 

Grace and Eva recently appeared at Glas-Goes Pop at Glasgow University Union where they met their idol, American musician and songwriter Rose Melberg. 

They also met Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth after a gig at Mono, and Duglas T Stewart from BMX Bandits is a big fan. 

The girls said playing at the Postcards From Scotland book launch was a career highlight. 

Grace and Eva are set to play a gig for their friend John Kavanagh at The Flying Duck, and will appear on CamGlen Radio later this month. 

They're playing a charity gig for Starter Packs Glasgow at The Glad Cafe in Shawlands in September, and support slots for Chime School at Mono, and for Silver Biplanes at Leith Depot are also planned. 

The Cords are hoping to get into the studio to start recording their first album soon. 

The girls say it's 'very cool' knowing that big names on the indie scene are aware of their talents. 

Eva added: "It feels amazing but really surreal. 

"We have a nostalgic sound but we're putting a new spin on it and bringing it to a new audience."
