Celebrate 40 Years with 40
Songs |
| |
 In a
business where talented singers are a
dime a dozen, few reach their dreams of
achieving a career that lasts for
decades. The Bellamy Brothers are an
exception to the rule. 2015 marks 40
years in the music business for brothers,
Howard and David Bellamy. To celebrate
their career milestone, the brothers are
releasing Bellamy Brothers: 40 Years, a
2-disc set containing 20 rerecorded
versions of some of their classic hits as
well as 20 all-new songs.
"We hope our fans enjoy this new set
of songs," says David Bellamy.
"There are a lot of great new songs
but we also made sure to include newer
versions of the songs that defined our
career. A lot of blood, sweat and tears
went into making this compilation. We
enjoyed every minute of mentally
traveling back through time to put it all
together. As they say, 'Do what you love
and you'll never work a day in your
life.'''
 The new compilation contains
many familiar Bellamy classics including
"Let Your Love Flow," "Old
Hippie," "Redneck Girl,"
"If I Said You Have A Beautiful Body
(Would You Hold It Against Me)" and
"Kids Of The Baby Boom." The
new songs, most all of which were written
by David and Howard, contain that classic
Bellamy sound of the yesteryear which
ultimately made the brothers household
names.
On the new tunes, David Bellamy notes,
"Most of these songs are brand new
but after listening to them, I think some
of them could have easily been big hits
for us earlier in our career. They've all
got that sound that has seemed to follow
us over the years."
On 40 years in the business, Howard
Bellamy reminisces, "This thing has
been a wild ride but it's never been
boring. Over the course of four decades,
we've done some amazing things and have
traveled the world over. Until the Lord
calls us home, we'll continue this
seemingly never-ending, awesome,
wonderful, beautiful, 'jet lag journey.'
Here's to the next 40!'"
The Bellamys continue to keep the tour
trail red hot, performing more than 150
live dates each year. David and Howard
are one of the most worldly-traveled acts
in the history of country music. They
have performed countless tours overseas
in more than 60 countries including
India, Sri Lanka, Australia, Austria, New
Caledonia and Brazil. This summer, the
brothers head back to Europe for several
concert dates in Switzerland, Norway,
Denmark and Germany.www.BellamyBrothers.com
