The Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center, “the Kate”, welcomes The Secret Sisters – Laura and Lydia Rogers – on Thursday, November 2, 2023 at 7:30 pm.
The Secret Sisters new album, “Saturn Return” is the Alabama-based duo’s second release for New West Records. Like its predecessor, 2017’s Grammy-nominated “You Don’t Own Me Anymore,” the record was produced by Brandi Carlile and Phil and Tim Hanseroth. The elements that made listeners fall in love with the band’s 2010 self-titled debut album—sweet, strong voices, carefully crafted musical arrangements, and soul-baring songwriting—are still present, but there’s also newfound confidence and individuality.
The album is named after an astrological occurrence in which the planet Saturn returns to the same place in the sky that it occupied at the moment of a person’s birth. During this phase, which happens approximately every 29 ½ years, said Laura, a woman “comes into her own and has this awakening in herself about who she is as a person. It can also be a very traumatic time where your whole world just seems to radically shift.”
“When this is happening, you begin to feel the pressure of time and awareness of your own mortality,” Lydia added. “It brings the important aspects of life into sharper clarity and it centers your mind on what’s really important.”
Recorded in Carlile’s home studio in Washington State, “Saturn Return” heralds the arrival of a new era of The Secret Sisters, who both experienced their first Saturn returns while making the record. Carlile
challenged the sisters to sing as individuals instead of relying solely on close harmony singing, and for the first time, Laura and Lydia performed separately in the studio. This is also the first album in which The Secret Sisters composed all the songs without any co-writers.
With Saturn Return, The Secret Sisters have truly come into their own as artists, songwriters, and singers. “I’ve come to feel like this is what we were meant to do,” said Lydia. “That’s a really good feeling.”
