Everybody's a buzz about 10/10/10. Several ethnic groups swear there is something magical about the number ten, and having the number ten times three has caused an outright fervor. The new group out of Greeneville, Tennessee probably doesn't need any luck since they have enough already and I can vouch for that.
Sometimes as a journalist, you have a lucky day and you get the opportunity to not only discover someone who is certain to succeed but to actually meet them.
Today was one of those lucky days for me. As for The Band Perry, It's clearly obvious there is something to it, since their hometown as declared October 10, 2010 as The Band Perry Day!
The Band Perry is comprised of Siblings Kimberly, Reid, and Neil Perry. After the declaration this unique trio took to the streets of their hometown, for an acoustic show to promote their self titled CD which debuts this week. With only their guitars the Perry's performed songs from their new album for thousands of fans, friends, and family.
"Hip to my Heart", "Independence", and "Postcard from Paris" was among the hometown favorites. They closed with the song that put them in the top twenty of CMT and GAC, "If I Die Young." After the show The Perry's took the time to meet fans, take pictures, and sign autographs for hours.
After seeing their performance today, it's easy to see why this very talented and pleasant trio has been nominated as Vocal Group of the Year by the Academy of Country Music. And talk about luck! this fall they will be touring with Country super star Alan Jackson.
