May 2, 2016

Beyoncé gave her Atlanta fans a great show yesterday at the Georgia Dome during the  third date of her "Formation" Tour .

But two young Atlantans got an extra treat from Queen Bey yesterday.

Chloe and Halle Bailey, two Atlanta-born singing sisters aged 17 and 16 respectively, signed with Beyoncé's Parkwood Entertainment in 2015 for a reported $1 million after their cover of the singer's "Pretty Hurts" went viral on You Tube.

On Sunday, as Beyoncé wowed the crowd at the Dome, the girls saw their five-song EP Sugar Symphony debut exclusively on Billboard.com. The EP features contributions from musicians such as Drake and Jay Z.

Here is a look at the video for their single "Drop":
