The Secret Sisters

Overview

The Secret Sisters initiate many new traditions on their second full-length album, Put Your Needle Down [Republic Records]—produced by the legendary T Bone Burnett. The duo of Laura and Lydia Rogers has certainly come a long way from their critically acclaimed 2010 self-titled debut and an even longer way from their childhood in Florence, Alabama—just outside of the legendary music mecca Muscle Shoals. Embracing a myriad of styles and focusing on songwriting this time around, their growth becomes evinced within both the music and the title.  The Secret Sisters’ own history comes to life vividly within Put Your Needle Down. They’re writing their legacy now. “We grew up,” Lydia leaves off. “We didn’t have a clue on the first album. We never had been in a plane or hailed a taxicab. We were handed this amazing gift to become artists. We treasure it, and we’re running with it now.”
