The Civil Wars duo Joy Williams and John Paul White travel without a backup band, and on their first full-length album, Barton Hollow, the bare-bones live arrangements that fans hear on the road are fleshed out with just the barest of acoustic accoutrements. Each song is an intimate conversation, and no third wheels or dinner-party chatter are going to interrupt that gorgeous, haunting hush.
Their signature song "Poison & Wine" was heard on the ABC television show Grey's Anatomy - in the foreground, in its entirety, over a key climactic montage, prompting hundreds of thousands of viewers to Google the mysterious music.

After first tweeting her love for the duo, fellow NashvillIan Taylor Swift included "Poison & Wine" as a selection in her official iTunes playlist, saying, "I think this is my favorite duet. It's exquisite."
