Little Sister
Pike soon met her future guitarist and musical partner Wayne Sutton at a street festival in Dallas. After a brief stint in Austin, Sutton returned to Plano, Texas,a suburb of Dallas, where the two formed a band and began writing and rehearsing. Originally called 'Little Sister', the band began playing in Dallas on stages such as Club Dada, but soon relocated to the thriving musical scene of Austin. They quickly moved from playing the Black Cat as an opening band for local favorites Soul Hat into a headlining role of their own, and remained popular in Austin for many years. The band was invited to tour on the H.O.R.D.E. tour with Blues Traveler, Dave Matthews Band, and Allman Brothers Band and recorded their first major label record Free Love And Nickel Beer on EMI/SBK records just prior to the tour.

“It’s babe feminism—we’re young, we’re fun, we do what we want in bed—and it has a shorter shelf life than the feminism of sisterhood. I’ve been a babe, and I’ve been a sister. Sister lasts longer.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
