by David Roberts.
The Secret Sisters are Lydia and Laura Rogers, a duo based in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Their sweet voices and old-time sensibility caught the interest of the legendary T-Bone Burnett, who took them under his wing, produced their record, and started a label purely to release it.
He also brought in a bunch of old Nashville session musicians to play behind them, using instruments and recording methods from the 1950s. The result is an unabashed throwback and a consistent pleasure. There’s a bit of genteel NPR-ishness to it, sure. They’ll probably play it in Starbucks. But whatever—you’ll pry my love of pretty harmonies out of my cold, dead hands. Or ears, rather.
This tune is called “Why, Baby, Why.”
