Why not let T Bone Burnett himself describe The Secret Sisters, the singing duo that will perform at Riverbend tonight.
“I have been making music for over 40 years, and The Secret Sisters album is as close to pure as it gets,” he is quoted as saying in the sisters’ bio on their website.
“Listening to The Secret Sisters sing, you hear in their voices a sound that is timeless and of the moment. You hear the history of rural American music from the 1920s and a reverence for every musical genre this country has produced. Popular music requires the absolute honesty of The Secret Sisters, and I’m thrilled to be involved in presenting them to the world.”
