Hot country trio the Band Perry performed 'Better Dig Two' at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night (May 19), bringing their unique electricity to the stage with one of the coolest, edgiest mainstream country tracks the genre has seen in recent years.
The Band Perry hit the stage of 'Dancing With the Stars' on Tuesday (April 16), performing 'Better Dig Two,' the first single from the just-released top-seller 'Pioneer.'
The Band Perry will give 'Dancing With the Stars' fans a heap of their new album 'Pioneer' this week. While contestants try to dance around the competition to avoid being eliminated, the sibling trio will play one of their latest hits, 'Better Dig Two.'
What inspired 'Pioneer'? What's in store for their future? Talk about touring with Rascal Flatts ... These are all professional questions to ask a band like the Band Perry, a family trio that just found out their new album is atop the country album charts, with almost 130,000 copies sold it its debut week. Fans want the scoop though, and Neil, Kimberly and Reid were kind enough to dish it in an interview feature we call 60 Seconds With the Band Perry.
The 2013 ACM Awards produced some predictable and unpredictable moments on Sunday night. Luke Bryan won Entertainer of the Year, which few would have bet on in Las Vegas if gambling on awards shows was something people did. Miranda Lambert's wins were more expected, but equally deserving. 'Over You' is among the best songs of the last 15 years, and she and husband Blake Shelton are worthy of the honors.
Before the Band Perry took the stage at the 2013 ACM Awards on Sunday, Neil Perry issued a bit of a memo while being interviewed on the red carpet, warning that the performance would "definitely be the most dangerous performance of the night." His tongue was likely tucked firmly in his cheek, since we never felt unsafe while watching Neil and his siblings Kimberly and Reid perform their new single, 'Done.' It was, however, one of the most fun, high octane performances of the evening.
Taylor Swift and the Band Perry are among the artists nominated for the 2013 Billboard Milestone award. The newly-announced multi-genre award will be handed out at the Billboard Music Awards in May.
If Kimberly Perry of the Band Perry's boyfriend is planning to propose, the singer is sure to be surprised. Perry told Taste of Country that marriage and starting a family are not on her to do list for 2013, adding with a laugh, "And that goes for all three of us. We can't have babies."
If you've ever listened closely to the lyrics in 'Done,' you know that it's the kind of song that gets written at the end of a relationship, when all ties are cut and both parties walk away angry. To illustrate the battle in real life, the Band Perry employed a human-sized chess board and people dressed as life-sized chess pieces.
The Band Perry have yet to reveal the title of their sophomore project, but the highly-anticipated album -- which features the band's current Top 10 single, 'Better Dig Two' -- has been given an April 2 release date.
In light of the December 14 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, a number of country music radio stations have taken a second look at certain songs that receive regular airplay. Two songs by the Band Perry have been temporarily removed from many playlists due to concerns from listeners and program directors.
The Band Perry will appear on this weekend's season opener of 'Extreme RVs' on the Travel Channel. During the episode, viewers will get an exclusive look into the sibling trio's home away from home -- their tour bus-- which not only provides them a home on wheels, but also a mobile recording studio.
