The Shires (country duo)
The Shires, who formed in 2013, are an English country pop duo composed of singer-songwriters Ben Earle and Crissie Rhodes. The duo released their record-breaking debut album Brave in 2015, becoming the first UK country act to chart in the Top 10 Official Album Charts. 〔()〕 They hail from the neighbouring counties of Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Ben sings vocals, plays piano and guitar and Shefford, Bedfordshire native Crissie Rhodes shares lead vocals. The duo fittingly took the band name in order to maintain a British identity and take a small part of the England back to the United States. "Shire" is the original term for what is usually now known as an English county. After playing hardly half a dozen shows together The Shires caught the attention of Decca Records who signed them in the UK and they secured a contract with American record label Universal Music Group Nashville thus becoming the first ever English country act to be signed to a major Nashville label.〔(The Sunday Times: That British twang, Country is being reborn in Bedford, not Nashville ) Retrieved on 2014-05-12, published by Paul Sexton May 4, 2014〕〔(Sounds Like Nashville Artist Profile Page ) Retrieved on 2014-05-12〕〔(Bob Harris BBC Radio 2 Live Session ) Retrieved on 2014-05-12〕 ==Career==
