The Burnettes are Cora and Chris Burnette. A Buckingham/Nicks for the modern age, the Vancouver based duo is a combination of Cora's penchant for roots and standards, and Chris's love of old school punk-rock. The result is some wacky, fun-lovin' toe tapping kitchen-party-pop peppered with harmonies, easy melodies, and more than a few shoe-gazing numbers in between. The Burnettes have been making music together since 2000. Three record and a fourth 'in the can', scheduled for release summer 2010. A few bands people say The Burnettes sound like (in no particular order): Ween, Bongwater, Pink Floyd, Yo La Tengo, Spent, Dead Milkmen, Gillian Welch, The Kostars, Fleetwood Mac, and Elvis movie music.
