The Band Perry biography

The Band Perry is an American Country-pop trio made up of siblings, Kimberly Perry Reid Perry and Neil Perry, who formed in 2005.

The band formed after Kimberley initially attempted to launch her solo singing career as a teenager, with Perry and Neil acting as her roadies and opening act as a duo. She eventually combined with her brothers after years of practicing and playing together during their childhood in hometown Alabama, and The Band Perry were born. The threesome embarked on the New Faces of Country Tour in in 2005.

The group were picked up during the summer of 2009 by newly formed Republic Nashville records, an American country label operating under Universal, after being taken under the wing of Country act manager Bob Doyle.

They quickly released their debut single in late 2009, “Hip to My Heart”, which was a success, landing at number 20 on the Billboard Country Chart, and establishing the siblings trademark pop and country blending style.

An EP titled “The Band Perry EP” was produced shortly after, but they achieved major breakthrough success with their eponymous debut studio album “The Band Perry”, which was released in 2010. The album featured the chart topping single “All Your Life”, as well as a host of other catchy country songs that helped the band gather momentum. Their debut album has sold over 1 million copies.

The southern siblings began work with legendary hip-hop producer Rick Rubin on their follow up album “Pioneer” a few years later, before its release in 2013. The second album was as equally successful as the first, serving up a second number one single in the form of “DONE.” for the band.

The trio recently performed before the 2014 Superbowl game, one of the most watched sports spectacles in the world. They’ve also rocked out on multiple sold out tours in the US and been nominated for and won a host of awards such as the Teen Choice awards and the Grammys.

Live reviews

In the past we’ve seen family bands be one of two things -- really cheesy like the ones on TV like The Brady Bunch or Partridge Family or they could be disastrous like the Davies brothers of the Kinks or Oasis’ Gallagher brothers. However it looks like The Band Perry is something completely different.
Composed of Kimberly, Neil and Reid Perry, this brothers and sister trio has been taking the world by storm with their gritty country tunes and impeccable showmanship. Signed to Republic Nashville, The Band Perry may have been playing together for a long time but didn’t break into the big time until ‘If I Die Young,’ off their self-titled 2010 debut album, released. Since then, they have been dominating in the country music scene and playing to packed crowds of all ages. And perhaps the reason they’re able to charm everyone from your little brother to your great-grandmother is because of their overall interaction with the crowd. Kimberly always makes sure she’s got everyone on the feet and clapping or even invites people to get onstage them with them.
Now well into their ‘We Are Pioneers’ World Tour, the band’s first headlining series of gigs, their clear familial chemistry onstage is tighter than ever. Not only do they support each other onstage, but they sure as hell know how to rock out on the country stage -- so much so, that even the biggest country skeptic will get into it.
