, who are both leading lights in Americana music as well as husband and wife and sometimes bandmates.
I think part of what made them so special was that they just found each other, because you can learn a lot about harmony singing and still not blend with the people that you’re with. There has to be something about your delivery and about just the way you view music in general.
