Brooks and Dunn

The undisputed kings of the ’90s line dancing craze, Brooks & Dunn are not only the biggest selling duo in country music history, they have also sold more records than any other duo in any genre. Ronnie Dunn was the quietly intense singer with the soulful voice, while Kix Brooks played the part of the high energy showman. Neither had been able to break through as a solo act, but together they hit upon a winning formula of rowdy, rocked up honkytonk tracks with punchy, danceable beats, alternated with silky smooth, pop tinged ballads. The combination made them one of the most popular country acts of the ’90s, and they were still going strong as the new millennium dawned.
