Sister Sledge
With “We Are Family”, Sister Sledge achieved an international chart success in 1979, which is still regarded as a classic of the disco era. The quartet from Philadelphia worked closely with the producer duo Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards of Chic. From the mid-1970s onwards, the sibling group regularly appeared in the US and UK charts.
