Joey + Rory are an American country music duo founded by husband and wife Joey Martin Feek and Rory Lee Feek. They were the third finalists on CMT's series, "Can You Duet" in 2008. Shortly after the competition, they were signed to the independent labels Vanguard and Sugar Hill Records. Their debut single, "Cheater, Cheater" was originally recorded by the duo Bomshel, whose own version failed to chart earlier in 2008. Joey and Rory's version of the song was released in August 2008, featuring a music video that has a cameo from Naomi Judd.
