Alyson Burke and Andrea Warner have shared many moments that extended past the aly’an duo act on the country music stage. Growing up together in a small, central Kentucky town, the girls have not always shared the spotlight as a group. Beginning in their younger years, they competed against each other in local talent contests and made many appearances on many Saturday night Jamboree stage shows across Kentucky as solo acts. However, Saturday nights were not the only times the girls crossed paths. In a public school with less than 500 students, the girls shared hallways, teachers, and classrooms from kindergarten until graduation. Their similar interest in sports led them to play on the same high school basketball team, leading to the development of a fast growing life long friendship. From this friendship and their similar musical talents, the idea of a duet act was born. Alyson and Andrea proposed their idea to Andrea’s father, who contacted friends he had known from many years as a musician. A band was formed and the girls began playing local events such as fundraisers and restaurants, and a fan base quickly developed. From this fan base, many contacts were made and the performances were extended to fairs and festivals. The high energy performance, crisp harmonies and a variety of music drew people from all over the state just to watch the girls perform, and ignited an intense buzz throughout the music community. Alyson and Andrea took advantage of opportunities that were offered, such as being the opening act for Nashville stars such as Trent Tomlinson, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Chris Knight and many others. One of the fastest rising pair of young talents to break into the music scene in many years, so don’t miss the chance to catch the show live. It will be one you will remember for a long time to come.
