Gloriana documents ACM trip
Wednesday, March 25, 2009 – Gloriana was chosen by the Academy of Country Music to document their first trip to the Academy of Country Music Awards in Las Vegas for an exclusive web series at CBS.com. The group will give fans a special behind-the-scenes look at the days leading up to their first ACM experience. "Gloriana: Road to the ACM Awards" at CBS.com, will feature several 3-minute webisodes leading up to the 44th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards April 5 in Las Vgas.
"It's an honor to join the list of artists the ACM has asked to do this web series," said Mike Gossin. "Over the last two years Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum were a part of this, and they did such a great job. We couldn't have dreamed up a cooler way to celebrate our first time at the ACM Awards than this, and we're thrilled to be a part of it all."
Footage includes the group performing on their radio tour, their first time at the Grand Ole Opry and picking out their first tour bus for when they hit the road with Taylor Swift this summer.

What's for certain is that Kimball, the multi-threat 22-year-old vocalist, reportedly just stopped showing up for Gloriana tour dates. A few tweets later, the bridges were burned, right on the verge of this record's release. The bandmates went into revisionist mode, expunging all traces of their former ...
It is interesting that Gloriana shares its name with a 1953 English opera, as they sound much the same --powerful, scripted and slightly overdramatic. The group's tight-knit harmonies are the crux of this 13-track album; they gorgeously weave and contrast strong 2-, 3- and 4-parts into almost every verse. Occasionally the group over sings, but then, they are fighting to be heard over layers of unneeded production.
Given the ages of the foursome (teens to mid-20s), it's only natural ...
