Marrying a wide variety of musical influences, they have formed a unique array of sounds ranging from rock, country, folk, singer\/songwriter and even pop. They released their first album, <em><strong>The Ruins<\/strong>, <\/em>via <strong>Malaco Records<\/strong>. They&#8217;ve been regular contributors to <strong>The Oxford Film Festival<\/strong> with their music videos and short films, winning Best Music Video in 2017 for &#8220;Broken Paths.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two will perform at <strong>Thacker Mountain Radio <\/strong>on <strong>Thursday, April 13<\/strong>, along with author <strong>Charles Frazier<\/strong> and blues guitarist\/vocalist <strong>Ryan Lee Crosby<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While originally pursuing separate careers, the duo knew from the moment they stepped on stage with each other that there was undeniable electricity between the two. Their devotion to music led Stace &amp; Cassie to book shows together and focusing on becoming a permanent duo; not only in their careers, but also in life. Shortly after, the couple tied the knot in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After two years of touring, Stace &amp; Cassie garnered the attention of Malaco Records and inked a record deal in October of 2015. Following the deal, the duo released their first album, <em>The Ruins<\/em>, in 2016. Subsequently, Stace &amp; Cassie have received four Josie Music Awards for Video of The Year for \u201cA Hard Rain\u201d (2017), Duo\/Group of The Year (2018), Duo\/Group of the Year (2022), and Best Actor (Male) in a music Video (2022). The couple was awarded another Country Music Award in 2018 by the Jackson Music Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since, the couple has been paving their way across the country at various music venues in the south. With the balanced mixture of Stace\u2019s gritty guitar riffs and raspy voice and Cassie\u2019s powerhouse vocals, rhythm guitar playing, and percussive accompaniments, they take the audience on a musical journey leaving their fans anxiously awaiting more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to being a couple who makes music and art together, the process can be difficult. \u201cWhen we\u2019re here together, we\u2019re in family mode, husband-and-wife mode; and we have to be intentional to make. time for [writing songs],\u201d said Stace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe take a lot of little trips to get away from life, to be able to focus on the writing process,\u201d Cassie said. \u201cAny time we\u2019re out of town we try to write at least one song.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/o466VyH0RkM\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brandon, Mississippi duo Stace &amp; Cassie have been making music together since 2012.
