The secret is out across the pond. The debut album from Laura and Lydia Rogers -- better known as the Secret Sisters -- has made its U.K. debut at No. 1 on iTunes and the U.K. country charts.

The Alabama-bred siblings, whose sound is an ethereal throwback to 1940s and '50s country and folk music, will hit the road this year with some of their musical heroes.The pair have scored opening slots on shows with Loretta Lynn, Amos Lee, Ray LaMontagne and Brandi Carlile, the latter of whom is a dream come true for the girls.

"I'm obsessed, frighteningly crazy about Brandi Carlile," Laura admits to The Boot with a laugh. "Wherever she is, I need her to come and find me, because I love her. She is so inspiring to me on every level. Of all of the artists that I have loved throughout my life, nobody has moved me the way she does and nobody has inspired as far as performance, personality, crowd interaction, writing ability, vocal ability, nobody holds a candle to her in my book. And maybe I'm just a psycho, and she'll probably hear about me one day and say, 'Keep her at least 500 yards from me!' But I'm just so inspired by her. If we could work with her, that would be a huge thing."
