"How would you feel if you got the opportunity to make your favorite band's album?"
-Brandi Carlile

The Secret Sisters album "Saturn Return" är producerat av Brandi Carlile, Tim Hanseroth och Phil Hanseroth.

På tidigare album och live har systrarna Laura och Lydia Rogers konsekvent sjungit tillsammans, i stämmor, och det har så klart i stor utsträckning präglat deras sound. Stämsången är självklart fortfarande en viktigt ingrediens på "Saturn Return", men för första gången sjunger systrarna även på egen hand, uppmuntrade av producenten Brandi Carlisle: "It's really uniquely unified and harmonious when they're in tandem and very tumultuous and deep when they're not in tandem and I think for a brief, beautiful moment on this album we caught The Secret Sisters not in tandem for the first time". Carlile fortsätter, "To be a harbinger for their honesty in these songs and to watch them work together to see the tension was one of the greatest gifts of my career because those are two very powerful people in a very interesting point in their lives".

"Saturn Return" skapades under en omtumlande period i systrarna Rogers liv. De förlorade både sina far- och morföräldrar samtidigt som både Lydia och Laura fick barn för första gången. Stora, omvälvande händelser som givetvis reflekteras i texterna till plattans tio låtar.

The Secret Sister kommenterar plattan så här:
"As we age, we face obstacles that are beyond our control. Some forces are internal: insecurity, anxiety, fear. Some are external: the loss of loved ones, an unjust system and the fragility of time. Yet the mark of maturity is how you respond when you realize you're not in control. Where do you find your resilience? This album is a reflection of us coming to terms with how to find our power in the face of an unfair world. These songs lead listeners past 'where happy man searches, to a place only mad women know.' We question our purpose, our relationships, our faith. Trading the fears of our youth for the dread that rages within us as mature women. With Saturn Return, our hope is that women can feel less alone in their journey through the modern world. We need each other more than we ever have; the less competition and the more inclusiveness and understanding, the better. We are southern women in the 21st century, convicted by our beliefs".
