Neil Perry Opens Up About The Band Perry’s Shifting Lineup, Says He Was ‘Terminated’ From Family Band

"I explicitly asked my sister not to misrepresent my support for the current version of the band," Neil writes of Kimberly Perry moving forward with her husband.

There appears to be some bad blood among the past and current members of family country group The Band Perry.

The trio launched in 2010 as a sibling trio, consisting of Kimberly, Reid and Neil Perry, and earned hits including “If I Die Young” (a Hot Country Songs and Adult Contemporary No. 1) and “Better Dig Two” (No. 1 on Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay). The group went on hiatus in 2023, and Kimberly launched a brief solo career, before The Band Perry regrouped with Kimberly, brother Reid and Kimberly’s husband, Johnny Costello. Soon, Reid left the band and it transitioned to a duo with Kimberly and her husband, who released singles including “Psychological.”
