The Band Perry

Browse piano sheets by The Band Perry on Zen Virtual Piano. The Band Perry, siblings Kimberly, Reid and Neil Perry, inherited a cross-pollinated love of country and rock & roll from their parents, and they say that they bleed the bright red blood of American music. Siblings who say they bleed American music can be read as a band that treats country and rock as one inheritance rather than two camps. In July of 2005, after years of writing together, the siblings decided to join forces as one band. The Band Perry was then invited by the Coca-Cola Bottling Company to open all of the dates on their “New Faces Of Country” Tour that year. An invitation in 2005 to open a tour called New Faces Of Country can be read as an early sign that the band was noticed by the industry. Scott Borchetta and Jimmy Harnen, the CEO and President of Republic Nashville, heard the new recordings, and the band signed with the new label in the summer of 2009. The Band Perry is a Grammy, CMA and ACM Award-winning band known for its genre-defying sound and bold artistic reinvention, since bursting onto the scene with the 9x Platinum smash hit “If I Die Young.” A band known both for a nine-times-platinum hit and for reinvention can be read as a group unwilling to repeat itself. Neil Perry says the three bring different strengths into the writing room: Kimberly turns up with a bag of melodies and lyrics, Reid is never short of really great musical ideas kept in reserve, and Neil adds a sense of humor and some thread that ties it all together. Naming humor among what one member brings to the room can be read as a band that does not take its writing too solemnly.
