Dixie Chicks sisters, Martie Maguire and Emily Robison, recently recorded sans frontwoman Natalie Maines. It's unclear the duration of Maines hiatus, but this leaves room for guitarist/banjoist Robison to sing lead vocals for the first time on songs inspired by her recent divorce from Charlie Robison. The sister duo will be making their debut as the Court Yard Hounds at South by Southwest. See the links below for more info and other music highlights.
