We were honored to talk with “The Boyle Fuel Twins”, Deanna, and Deanda Sylte, growing up on a ranch in Rathdrum, Idaho that was originally owned by Frederick Post.
At nine years old, the Sylte Sisters first appeared on “Starlit Stairway” on KXLY in 1953, Spokane’s answer to “The Ed Sullivan Show.” Performing for six years on the show, they pursued their Hollywood dreams with their older sister Joan, where they recorded their first record .45 “Ballad of Lover’s Hill.” The sisters sang on shows with Roy Rogers and Dale Evens, Pat Boone, Arthur Godfrey, Liberace, and Jim Backus. They then traveled abroad, singing for Indonesian President Sukarno and royalty in Vietnam and Afghanistan. They also performed for the king and queen of Thailand, the king of Nepal, the Shah and queen of Iran, and the king and queen of Cambodia.
Deanna is also an accomplished watercolorist and graphic designer. Deanda is a psychotherapist. Enjoy listening to the tales of these talented sisters.
You can see the two of them singing on Starlit Stairway on YouTube.
