John Paul White with The Secret Sisters

John Paul White is a Grammy Award–winning singer-songwriter who proudly resides in Florence, Alabama. As one half of critically acclaimed group the Civil Wars, White toured the world and introduced millions to his music. Now, he’s a cofounder of Single Lock Records, an independent record label based in the Shoals.

A 20-minute drive is all that kept Laura and Lydia Rogers (the Secret Sisters) from being born in historic Muscle Shoals, Alabama. But its sheer proximity to their hometown of Happy Valley foretold their destiny as recording and performing artists. Growing up surrounded by the sounds of the South and the powerful, timeless music emanating from Muscle Shoals, the sisters were heavily influenced by a range of uniquely American musical styles including country, bluegrass, and gospel as well as classic rock and pop. They listened to everything from George Jones and Loretta Lynn to the Eagles, the Ramones, and Fiona Apple, and they spent many weekends at local bluegrass festivals with their musician father. With the Secret Sisters' sophomore album, Put Your Needle Down (Republic Records), the band's future has never seemed clearer.
