The Band Perry Biography
The Band Perry is comprised of siblings Kimberly, Reid and Neil Perry. The three grew up playing gigs in Mobile, Ala., and
made connections with Garth Brooks' manager, Bob Doyle, in 2008. Following their encounter, the trio spent time writing and
recording music in Nashville where they were discovered by label executives Jimmy Harnen and Scott Borchetta. In 2009, the
group signed with Republic Nashville.
A debut single, "Hip to My Heart," was issued in November of that same year, which also saw The Band Perry begin working on their debut album with producers Nathan Chapman and Paul Worley. A self-titled EP was released in May 2010, followed by a full-length album of the same name later in the year. In December 2010, the band had its first No. 1 single, "If I Die Young," a mystic musing written by lead singer Kimberly Perry.
Early in 2011, the band won the Academy of Country Music's top new vocal group prize. Their album has been certified platinum and "If I Die Young" has been downloaded more than four million times. Other hits from the album include "All Your Life" and "Postcard from Paris."
