Duo Country
US originaire de Philadelphie (Pennsyvanie), composé des soeurs jumelles Heather et
Jennifer Kinley.
Twin sisters
from Philadelphia with impeccable harmonies and an energetic sense of country
swing, Heather and Jennifer Kinley, born November 5, 1970, were influenced by
the harmonies of other familial country pairings like
the Everly Brothers and
the Judds. At the age of 19, the twins
moved to Nashville and worked on their songwriting and performing, with Heather
on guitar and Jennifer on piano. They spent more than five years toiling in
Music City's underground before finally finding a winning song, "Just Between
You and Me." Co-written with Russ & Debbie Zavitson, it brought the major labels
calling, and the Kinleys signed with Epic.
After working with producers Tony Haselden and Peter Greene (as well as Russ
Zavitson), the Kinleys released their debut album, Just Between You and Me,
in September 1997. Their debut single, "Please," hit the country Top Ten and
even crossed over to the pop charts, then the song that had started it all for
them, "Just Between You and Me," made the country Top 20. The album settled in
for a run of almost a year on the country charts, eventually going gold.
Meanwhile, album tracks "Dance in the Boat" and "You Make It Seem So Easy" made
minor appearances in the country charts. As a result, the sisters were named
Best New Duo by the Academy of Country Music and garnered nominations from the
Grammys, the Country Music Association, and the American Music Awards.
In the fall of 1998, they were represented by "Somebody's out There Watching" on
the million-selling television soundtrack album Touched by an Angel. Released as
a single, the song made the country Top 20 and crossed over to the pop charts.
In August 1999, the Kinleys returned to the country charts briefly with the
one-off single "My Heart Is Still Beating," but they spent a long time crafting
their second album, working with Russ Zavitson and Tony Haselden again for half
of it, but turning to Radney Foster
for help in completing it. The album was heralded by an advance single, "She
Ain't the Girl for You," which broke into the country charts in April 2000. The
Kinleys II finally appeared in July.
