The Wilsons is a Canadian country music duo composed of Dave and Kortney Wilson. Both Dave and Kortney had solo deals with Lyric Street Records. While neither artist released an album for Lyric Street, Kortney charted two singles on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart in the United States as Kortney Kayle. They started their family after they were each released from the label in 2003. Kortney also made several appearances on the soap opera One Life to Live.
Dave and Kortney began performing together as The Wilsons in 2006. In 2009, they became the stars of Meet the Wilsons, an eight-part half-hour series directed and edited by Bill Filipiak airing on CMT in Canada. The show debuted in the United States on December 5 on CMT with a four episode marathon. Their first single, "Stick Together," was released in August 2009. The Wilsons released their first album, The Wilsons for Open Road Recordings in June 2010.
They later lost their recording deal and turned to renovating and flipping houses in Nashville, and currently star in the reality television series Masters of Flip.
