I just found the two albums by Kasey Chambers and Shane Nicholson on LP locally, and though I've listened to only the first released---2008's Rattlin' Bones, I had to tell ya'll about it. Fantastic!
I've been a fan of Kasey since the release of her first solo album in the late-90's (she had earlier been in a group with her mother, father, and brother---The Dead Ringer Band), but these two albums---made with her husband Shane Nicholson (lucky dog; Kasey's a doll ;-) ---are true duet-style singing affairs, and really, really good. Very reminiscent of the music of Buddy Miller and Julie Miller. Not Alt-Country, true Country.
