Between the time the Secret Sisters (siblings Laura Rogers and Lydia Slagle) recorded their fourth album, Saturn Return, and released it in February of 2020, both became first-time mothers and a worldwide pandemic was taking hold. The ensuing months and years of parenthood and self-preservation had the effect -- perhaps counterintuitive at first -- of making them calmer and more self-assured, as they found themselves letting go of people, concepts, and pressures that weren't worth it, instead focusing on love and care. This gained wisdom, warmth, and composure permeate Mind, Man, Medicine, an album that also finds the sisters continuing to shift away from mid-century-anchored close harmony and toward something more open and present. That's not to say that they leave behind major, career-long influences like traditional country and early rock & roll -- or vocal harmony -- but that there's not a note of pastiche here. This nonlinear slide along the era spectrum began in earnest on their two previous albums (You Don't Own Me Anymore and Saturn Return), both of which were co-produced by Brandi Carlile and resulted in Grammy nominations.
