For the past decade, soulful duo The War And Treaty---the husband-and-wife team of Michael and Tanya Trotter---have released music that continues to elevate them beyond beloved industry favorites, as well as award-season and touring staples, capable of performing on stages worldwide with widespread acclaim and standing ovations. Every aspect of their new project exemplifies the pinnacle of the group's ever-creative growth within these mentioned ideas. Twelve years after their founding, The War And Treaty have redefined themselves beyond Academy of Country Music, Country Music Association, and GRAMMY nominations. Moreover, being lauded by the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the Grand Ole Opry, and the Americana Music Association, which named them Duo/Group of the Year for two consecutive years, cannot contain them as a group greater than the sum of their most successful parts.Immediately upon listening to their latest album, it's clear that a more vibrant energy now guides a duo confidently shaping their own destiny. Album collaborators include titans of the arts who are as much friends, mentors, and trusted confidants as they are legends across multiple industries: Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award winner Whoopi Goldberg (who provides the spoken word intro for , "rdquo" -> Litty"), Songwriters Hall of Famer Kenneth , "rdquo" -> Babyface" Edmonds (writer of , "rdquo" -> You Can't Hurt Me Anymore"), Country Music Hall of Famer Wynonna Judd, and Grammy-nominated performer Valerie June (both on , "rdquo" -> Reclaim All Of Your Time") all contribute as guest artists. Hall of Fame-caliber mentors and influential friends, now serving as relaxed collaborators, shape how powerhouse country-soul vocalists like Valerie June and Wynonna Judd influence The War And Treaty's latest sound. The duo's pairing is less unlikely than it appears at first glance: both grew up listening to classic country and Memphis soul records, among many other genres. As a result, on the song , "rdquo" -> Reclaim All of Your Time," their styles blend seamlessly with Tanya Trotter's veteran gospel-soul stylings. For nearly five years after writing the folksy, female-empowerment ballad, Michael Trotter, its creator, believed it should be presented as a conversational piece with layered harmonies. He was right. The song, both in its composition and vocal delivery, combines warmth and strength to forge a rare genre bridge. Beyond collaborations, The War And Treaty's latest work also thoughtfully seeks to expand Ray Charles' 50-year-old idea that the best music exists in the tension between sacred sounds and secular desires. Given that Michael and Tanya Trotter are a married couple, their ability to explore that space is obvious. Yet, their decade-long efforts to meet industry expectations in folk, Americana, and country music left significant raw and romantic potential in their sound untapped. We're finally performing material that shows people how, beyond being mature and intentional, how sanctified and sexual we can be," says Tanya Trotter. , "rdquo" -> For Michael and me, it's important to show the combination of rawness and sweetness that underlies our soulful sound."
