Live is a live album from the international music group String Sisters. The CD/DVD was recorded on the group's Norway tour in 2005/6 and was released in November 2007. Live features traditional and newly composed sets arranged and written respectively by the band members.
The album was released in 2009 by Compass Records in North America and at the end of that year was longlisted for a Grammy award. Live missed the shortlist, but bandmember Liz Carroll was nominated for another project.
