The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

We suffer from these three things every year. We promise ourselves not to repeat the cycle, but we always do. So, let's discuss this in the hope that we can do something different this year.

Consult With Yourself First on Every Decision, Not Family and Friends 8:15

Send us a text Talking to yourself isn’t a sign of craziness; I do it regularly, even in the dressing room. Verbalizing my thoughts helps me work through them and make sense of my decisions before discussing them with a friend or family member. Ultimately, I will be the final decision-maker. https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…

My Three-Year Roadmap to Life After Divorce 20:31

Send us a text This was the roadmap I created for myself. I wasn't sure if it would work, but surprisingly, it did. Divorce is scary because your life changes completely. I decided that I wanted my financial situation to remain the same, so I developed a path to success. I also knew I wanted to date—not just casually, but to truly embrace dating, just as I did before marriage. I can say it has worked out better than I thought! https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…

Great Marriage, But the Weight of Over-Compromise Can Cause Stress Leading to Illness 22:16

Send us a text Sometimes, ladies feel like they are comprising, but really, you are taking a backseat. The problem is that it's in our nature to be givers, and it's such a bad trait. Then we become upset, our health goes down the drain, and we don't know why. The problem is right there in front of us, but we start to blame our husbands. Yeah, he might have a little part in it, but we are the biggest problem. https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…

Send us a text Ladies, you have to stop using excuses for why he ignores you or doesn't acknowledge you on this important day. Please stop with that old saying, "He shows me 365 days out of the year," because you know that isn't true. It might be time for you to move on. Why stay if you aren't shown love on the biggest lover day of the year?…

Funny Late-Night Chitchat: Are you Heartbroken because this Person Left, or is it Something Stemming from your Childhood, or is it a Past Relationship? 22:04

Send us a text I see women whining about their recent breakups all the time, but I question if they truly understand what they're feeling and crying about. I don't think they know. It seems to me that women feel pressured to show some kind of emotion after a breakup. I know I can't be the only one who finds it somewhat laughable when a breakup occurs. https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…

New Relationships: Stop Talking About Previous Relationships, Your Girlfriends, Your Family, and Your Vulnerabilities. 13:32

Send us a text Dating should be new and exciting, yet somehow, we tend to fall into the same old patterns. We often discuss the same topics in every relationship, the only difference being that it's with a different person. Honestly, this approach isn't working; we either end up breaking up or getting bored to death. So, let's switch up, do some things differently, try new questions, and see where things go. https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…

Send us a text I believe the downfall of any relationship, whether romantic or platonic, occurs when one person becomes a carbon copy of the other. I think relying on someone else to make you happy and fill all the voids in your life can create too much pressure for anyone. Additionally, dating just one person can be a waste of time. https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…

Send us a text Many friendships end because you weren't being your true self; instead, you were trying to be what your friend wanted you to be. You were being her and doing the things she liked. When you attempted to express your own preferences or assert your individuality, conflicts arose. As a result, there was no space for your personal growth, yet despite all of this, you still find yourself missing her. But why is that? https://www.instagram.com/traceylau99/…
