Everyone is Invited to Be the Additional Haim Sisters Member.

"Any idea when you're interviewing the Haim sisters?" a message pops up. "I wanted to ask if I can become their fourth member."

However, there remains one problem: The author likewise desires to be Haim's newest recruit. What's more, we are not alone. Multiple famous admirers have openly begged for the honor.

The evidence suggests an irresistible appeal is happening. The siblings Este, Danielle and Alana began their career doing sets at neighborhood delis with their parents. Now they're multiple Grammy Award nominees.

In the tradition of the most iconic groups, they're a inseparable trio. Their visuals frequently feature them walking in sync down the avenues of Los Angeles. During performances, they perform with such pure joy you inevitably think, "I'd love to be involved in that, too."

"The amount of times on tour that audience members approached us and said, 'After your show, I bought a guitar'," states Alana, the most junior of the sisters. "It is the biggest honor. It is a prize in itself. We've done our job if we can motivate young girls to form a group."

"And thus all gets an invitation to be the next part of the family."

Award Milestone

The trio are speaking from their homes, where they're resting up after an extensive tour in promoting their new album, I Quit.

They're presently processing the news it's been shortlisted for a top rock honor at the Grammys – with Haim the very first all-female band ever in the running for the award.

"I watch the announcements every year, so it almost feels like an out-of-body experience when your name is read out," explains Alana. "I needed to phone my sisters to say, 'Am I hearing this right or am I hallucinating'?"

The significance of the nomination is deeply felt by the band.

"We truly set out to make a guitar-driven album this time, so it's a significant step," continues Alana. "But we're just appreciative for the women that inspired us."

Emotional Upheaval and Candor

The album was born from a time of transition. All three sisters were single, and the music explores that unique liminal space where you're happy to be free, but not yet ready to move on.

The themes detail departures and farewells. The sisters want love, but not the relationships they've got. You can hear them figuring out in real time who they aspire to be.

"I adore description, yes," says Danielle. "I Quit is essentially a personal statement. You have to make an effort in shutting out the noise and saying, 'It doesn't matter to me what people think'."

Evolution of Music

That developed confidence required a new sound – more organic and powerful than anything the band had done before.

For Danielle, who helped produce the album, that began with the drum sound.

"Drums are such a specific thing, and I focus so intensely about it," she says.

"'Journey of the drum sound' will be the name of our book," quips Alana. "Our motto is, our albums don't start until we find the perfect drum sound."

Experiences and Collective Camaraderie

The trio's honesty fueled the album's promotional campaign, where the sisters shared some of their dating horror stories.

Someone left Este over a medical consideration. Alana told a story of flying to celebrate New Year's Eve with someone, only to receive a high five at midnight.

"During these breakups, you just feel like there's no light," explains Alana. "So to be able to share those stories and have them tell you more outrageous stories, it's incredible."

A Confident Future

It's not difficult sense a shift in the band. Now, Haim are more confident of their position in the rock pantheon.

They're festival headliners, with chart-topping albums and an global fan base.

But the band will always be their primary priority.

"My sisters and I have been performing since I was four," concludes Alana. "It's like nothing else that we were supposed to do. And I'm really thankful we've made it and we're still making music."
