Speakerheart Artists on CMT's "Can You Duet"

Remember The Song Trust and their holiday hit "Bring Him Home Santa?" Well, the co-writer of that tune, Rory Feek, and his wife Joey Martin have taken to the small screen on CMT's latest American Idol-ish contest, Can You Duet.

The wedded duo perform against other country acts to see who has what it takes to work together and make it to the top. See it for yourself every Friday night at 8/7c on CMT.

And to learn more about Rory and Joey, check out their Myspace which links to their official Website and Joey's Speakerheart storefront where you can purchase her album, Strong Enough To Cry. But Joey isn't the only one in the family with a record out. Catch up with Rory and his My Ol' Man album available at Speakerheart.

Even though SXSW events ended last month, in our minds the party is still raging. And as promised we have even more exclusive content to share with you.
