We head to Muscle Shoals, Alabama for our next LCM featured sister duo Lydia and Laura Rogers better known as The Secret Sisters. The duo's music has been compared to artists like The Everly Brothers and the Milk Carton Kids. Lydia and Laura have recently released their latest crowd-funded third album 'You Don't Own My Anymore' on June 9th. It was produced by the very talented Brandi Carlile and the Hanseroth twins  Our LCM #TrackOfTheDay is a great taster of the new album entitled 'He's Fine'. 

With a love for music coming from both sides of their family (their grandfather and his brothers forged a group called 'The Happy Valley Boys'), they grew up with a zeal for country music and sang songs with their family by country music artists such as Don Williams. The girls first learned to harmonize through singing a cappella at their hometown church.  Laura and Lydia never considered a singing career as a duo. Laura went to Middle Tennessee State University to pursue a career in business.

Laura traveled to Nashville, Tennessee for an impromptu audition at Hotel Indigo where music business record executive Andrew Brightman and producer Dave Cobb were present, looking to create a new singing group. Lydia could not attend the audition, so Laura traveled by herself, where she auditioned with "Same Old You" by Miranda Lambert. Representatives from the audition soon asked her to come back to Nashville, to which she asked if she could bring her sister Lydia along. Lydia showed up later and they were asked to sing together, resulting in the formation of The Secret Sisters. The girls were soon flown to Los Angeles for their first time in the studio to record a couple of demos. For Laura, it was her first time in an airplane. The demos were produced and record companies began responding accordingly. Within weeks, they were assigned to Universal Republic Records and the song selection process for their debut album began. Their self-titled debut album consists of cover songs such as "Why Don't Ya Love Me?", "Why Baby Why", the Frank Sinatra song "Somethin' Stupid", and Nancy Baron's, "I've Got a Feeling". The album also includes two originals written by Laura Rogers: "Tennessee Me" and "Waste the Day". It was recorded in two weeks at Blackbird Studios and produced by Dave Cobb, who had worked with artists such as Waylon Jennings and Jamey Johnson. T Bone Burnett was the executive producer

The duo recorded their second album in December 2012 and January 2013 at the Village Recording Studios, Los Angeles, with T Bone Burnett as producer.

Their second album, 'Put Your Needle Down', was released on April 15, 2014. It debuted at No. 110 on the Billboard 200, and at No. 18 on the Top Country Albums chart with 3,700 copies sold in its debut week..
