The Kinleys was an American country music duo composed of identical twin sisters Heather and Jennifer Kinley, born November 5, 1970 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Between 1997 and 2000, they recorded two albums for the Epic Records label (1997's Just Between You and Me and 2001's II), also charting eight singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs charts in that timespan. A third album, All in the Family, was issued in 2004 on the independent Identical label.

Having started out on Al Alberts' Showcase, a televised talent show from the Philadelphia area, the twins moved to Nashville at the age of 19. After five years of training and practicing, they caught the attention of talent scouts and were signed with Epic Records. Their debut album Just Between You and Me was issued in late 1997, producing a #7 hit on the Billboard country singles charts in its lead-off single "Please". This song was followed by the album's title track at #12, although the next two singles both fell short of Top 40. Just Between You and Me was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.

The duo also recorded the song "Somebody's Out There Watching", which was used on the TV soundtrack album for the show Touched by an Angel. Released as a single in 1998, it reached Top 20 on the country charts. After it came the non-album single "My Heart Is Still Beating". The duo did not release another single until "She Ain't the Girl for You", the first single from their second album, II. This album also produced a minor single in "I'm In." After II, the Kinleys exited Epic's roster. Their third album, All in the Family, came in 2004, although neither of its singles charted.
