From The Judds to the Dixie Chicks and the Carter Family itself,
country music’s history is steeped in and rife with family duos, bands
and groups. Warner Music Nashville sister duo Walker County
adds to that ‘family tradition’ with blood-thick harmonies and solid
musicianship. Born and raised in rural Sulphur Springs, Indiana, sisters
Ivy Dene (lead vocals) and Sophie Dawn (percussion and harmony)
have been performing almost as long as they can remember. Sophie’s
hard-driving rhythms and Ivy’s strutting, soulful vocals create a unique
blend of country music that was inspired by the sounds of middle
America they grew up on. And now, having spent years honing their
skills, Walker County is ready to carry on the heritage of country
music with their modern-traditional blend. The 2020 CMT Listen Up
and Next Women of Country artists started rolling out new music in
the fall, showcasing both their range and true-to-themselves style in
feisty rocker “Shovel,” wistful reflection “Drag It Out” and upbeat
ode to loving relationships “Someone’s Someone.” They’re kicking
off 2021 with the bright pop country of “Bits & Pieces,” their major label debut single, as they prepare for a breakout year.
