"BEE: This is a huge deal. The Alabama-born Crutchfield sisters are twins Katie and Allison. They've been making music for over 20 years, and in that time, Katie's project, Waxahatchee, has really taken off. Her album "Tigers Blood" was nominated for a Grammy last year. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "TIGERS BLOOD") WAXAHATCHEE: (Singing) And I held it like a penny I found. It might bring me something, it might weigh me down."
