Dusty is mostly on lead vocals while Stones is mostly on harmony vocals. The duo released their first and only studio album, Mooihoek Country Fever, in 2009, which won the Best Country Music Artists/Group award in their home country for three consecutive years (2010, 2011 and 2013).

Two Irish radio DJs discovered their music in 2015.[2] Their songs "Ride with me" and "Mkhulu welfu" became moderately popular in Ireland as a result.[3]
