In a nice crossover, here's First Aid Kit doing Simon and Garfunkel's "America."

Another trio is the three sisters who make up Haim. I first heard them on SNL earlier this year and really like them.

For trios, try the Roches (sublime harmony) and the Wailin' Jennys.

Looking for more suggestions myself.


Kings of Convenience are the Simon and Garfunkel of Norway.

I watched the movie Bolt with my kid the other day. John Travolta and Miley Cyrus have a duet on the soundtrack. It's pretty cheesy.

Or that the original request was for male/female or female/female. So much as I love Simon and Garfunkel, they don't fit the bill.

I think Alex and Sierra do great (check out youtube for "X Factor Alex and Sierra").

There are some great duos on "The Voice" in the battle rounds like

Kings of Convenience. A good song to try is 'Homesick' on their album Riot on an Empty Street)

Indigo Girls - especially their early stuff. A good dong to try is "The Wood Song" on the Swamp Ophelia album.

These sisters harmonize beautifully. I believe they are Swedish but like most Scandinavians, you won't notice an accent when they sing.
