AWARD-WINNING FAMILY TRIO FEATURED ON 40TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION OF GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD
Nashville, TN – February 3, 2014 – On
the heels of their dynamic performance on the NFL and Fox’s Super Bowl
LXVIII Tailgate pregame show, it was announced today that sibling trio
THE BAND PERRY will be advising Blake Shelton’s team during the “Battle
Rounds” on Season Six of NBC’s The Voice. Tune into the season premiere
of The Voice, Monday, February 24, 2014 at 8PM EST / 7PM CST on NBC.
“Blake
didn’t have to ask us twice if we wanted to mentor his team this season
on The Voice, “ said The Band Perry. “It was so much fun to work with
Team Blake, and after 15 years of receiving plenty of ‘constructive
criticism,’ it was our turn to pay it forward. We just hope we were as
helpful to Blake’s team as our own mentors have been to us through the
years.”
It was also announced the award-winning family trio will be featured on the 40th
Anniversary re-mastered edition of Elton John’s 1973 seminal
breakthrough album, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, with their version of the
song “Grey Seal.” The reissued CD will be released March 24, 2014 by
Universal Music Catalogue / Mercury on CD, vinyl, limited-edition yellow
vinyl, and in a box set featuring recording of ‘Live At Hammersmith
1973’ on CD, a DVD of Bryan Forbes’ 1973 film ‘Elton John and Bernie
Taupin Say Goodbye To Norma Jean and Other Things’, along with a
100-page illustrated hardback book packed with rare photos, memorabilia
and new essay containing interviews with Elton John and Bernie Taupin.
“Elton
John is a musical hero of ours, and to be included in a project with
him is something that is beyond our wildest dreams,” said the band.
Last
week, The Band Perry received two award nominations from the Academy of
Country Music for “Vocal Group of The Year” and “Music Video of The
