The Quebe (pronounced kway-bee) sisters grew up in Burleson, Texas in Tarrant County.
The three sisters started taking fiddle lessons from Sherry F. McKenzie, a former national fiddle champion, and later from Joey Mckenzie (her husband), also a former national fiddle champion.
The sisters learned traditional Texas-style fiddling and began entering fiddle contests. They had success early on; winning several state, regional, and national fiddle championships.
The Quebes have been featured on a segment of Bob Phillips' Texas Country Reporter anthology television series and on episode 571 of the WoodSongs Old-Time Radio Hour. In 2010 the band appeared at the Cambridge Folk Festival in England. On November 20, 2010, the The Quebe Sisters were featured on A Prairie Home Companion, broadcast from Houston, Texas. The group has also appeared on The Marty Stuart Show.
