The Band Perry
Hot sibling trio, The Band Perry, will be releasing new single ‘Done’ in the UK via Decca Records/ Universal on June 10th. This stomping country crossover is the first single taken from their second album ‘Pioneer’.
Tipped by Justin Timberlake as one of the must-buy albums of the year, ‘Pioneer’, sees The Band Perry collaborate with an impressive list of notable contributors - from award winning producer Dann Huff, (LeAnne Rhymes, Kelly Clarkson, Bon Jovi, Faith Hill), and executive producer Scott Borchetta, (of Taylor Swift’s Big Machine Label Group) to Rick Rubin.
Since releasing their platinum selling self-titled debut album, (which topped the UK iTunes country charts in 2012), The Band Perry have ascended to dizzying heights.
Fronted by the charismatic Kimberly Perry, (who started her first band at the age of 15), and rounded out by her younger brothers Neil and Reid, they have notched up a string of hit singles, including the quadruple-platinum ‘If I Die Young’, (the third highest selling country digital single of all time), the platinum ‘You Lie’, and the Country No. 1 ‘All Your Life’.
They’ve also enjoyed sold-out tours and one-off gigs, (including an Autumn 2012 show at Koko which sold out within minutes of going on sale), and a showering of honors, including multiple ACM, CMA, and CMT Music award wins, as well as Grammy, Teen Choice, AMA, ACA, and Billboard Music award nominations - all of which has cemented the sibling trio as one of the hottest crossover country acts in recent history. .
Taken as a whole, ‘Pioneer’ enables The Band Perry to accomplish one of its primary goals: to bring the romantic mystique of bands back to music - something they’ve dreamed of doing ever since forming the group in Mobile, Alabama, where the Perry kids moved with their parents after a childhood spent in Jackson, Mississippi.
The result is a collection of rock tinged country crossover hits, such as forthcoming single ‘Done’ (an empowerment anthem about how you feel when you’ve given the best of yourself and it’s still not good enough), and the Queen-influenced, ‘Forever Mine Nevermind’.
Other highlights include more vulnerable, pensive songs such as title track ‘Pioneer’, ‘Don’t let Me Be Lonely’, and ‘Mother Like Mine’, alongside the Southern Gothic culture influenced, ‘Better Dig Two’, which is shaping up to be the band’s fastest-rising track in the U.S. to date with 650,000 downloads sold already and counting.
