Album: The Secret Sisters, The Secret Sisters (Decca)
Laura and Lydia Rogers are twenty-something sisters from Alabama.
They were discovered at an open audition in Nashville, Tennessee, before being flown to LA to record their debut album under the gaze of T Bone Burnett, who says: "I've been making music for 40 years and this is as close to pure as it gets." He's not kidding. It's the sound of Sun Records before it set, but there's nothing retro-modern here. Just simple, old-fashioned talent and charm.
