BELLAMY
BROTHERS LET THEIR GLOBAL LOVE FLOW
Bellamys Set For International Tours in South
Africa, Bulgaria, Australia,
Sri Lanka, Switzerland, Germany, Norway, Sweden,
France and Austria.
 Multi-platinum selling
country music duo the Bellamy Brothers are
certainly no strangers to international touring.
While most traditional country musicians keep
their sights set on the U.S. tour trail, David
and Howard Bellamy have always taken an alternate
approach, maintaining solid inter-national
concert bookings for the past 35 years.
In 2011 and 2012, in addition to playing
approximately 300 U.S. dates, the brothers will
travel and perform in South Africa, Bulgaria,
Australia, Sri Lanka, Switzerland, Ger-many,
Norway, Sweden and France, among others.
“Our international career has been a
phenomenal blessing,” says David Bellamy.
“When we started the band over three decades
ago, we never anticipated having such an amazing
global reach.”
This May marks 35 years since "Let Your Love
Flow" went to No. 1 in 15 countries
worldwide, including the U.S. In 1979, their
“If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body Would
You Hold It Against Me” was crowned the
United Kingdom?s Record of the Year.
The brotherly duo remains a major player in the
European record industry. In 2010, the Bellamys
teamed with Swiss megastar Gölä (Universal
Music Switzerland) to release Bellamy Brothers
& Gölä: Greatest Hits Ses-sions. The album
spent seven weeks at No. 1 on the Swiss Music
Chart and earned the Bellamys a double-platinum
selling record. The album also spawned a sold-out
eight city tour of Switzerland.
The Bellamys? Anthology Volume 1 (previously
released and recently certified gold in
Switzerland and Nor-way) and Volume 2 are
currently scheduled for a 2011 release in Denmark
and Sweden. Both albums will be supported with
national television campaigns.
The Bellamys are currently in negotiations with a
major label German / Austrian artist for a
collaborative pro-ject. An official announcement
is expected soon.
“We feel very fortunate for our
international following. Our foreign fans have
been so loyal over the years, and every tour has
been a memorable experience even though we suffer
from a chronic case of jet lag,” confesses
Howard Bellamy.
