Joey + Rory Essentials

Husband and wife duo Joey and Rory Lee Feek may have had only a brief window of time to bring their uplifting country and bluegrass to the masses, but they left an indelible mark with those years. After finding an audience through their appearance on Can You Duet, their 2008 debut, The Life of a Song, offered fired-up, down-home banjo jams and dramatic countrypolitan numbers. The couple, whose vocals weave together seamlessly, consistently explored traditional American values and their Christian faith through their music. Joey + Rory's 2016 release, Hymns, would be their swan song—less than a month after its release, Joey passed away from cancer.
