McClymonts open for Aldean tour

Friday, August 27, 2010 – Aussie group The McClymonts will open dates this fall opening for Jason Aldean. The sisters recently released their debut album "Chaos and Bright Lights" in the U.S. on Executive Music Group.

"We love the fans here in the US; they make us feel so at home," the group said in a statement. "When we got the call from our team that Jason had extended us an invitation to tour with him, we did a little jig, in other words, we were elated and honored to tour with one of country music's hottest acts," they continued.

Already certified gold in their native Australia, the trio of sisters - Brooke, Sam and Mollie - worked with some of Nashville's musicians and hit record producer Adam Anders (music producer for Fox TV's "Glee," Shania Twain, Hannah Montana, and Nick Jonas) in co-writing all 12-tracks on "Chaos and Bright Lights."

The group walked away with four CMAA (Country Music Association of Australia) awards including "Best New Talent" and have received the "Group Of The Year" honor at the Golden Guitar Awards three years in a row. Earlier this year, the single Finally Over Blue tipped The Eagles chart-topping 10-month run off the Australian radio airplay charts.

CD reviews for The McClymonts

If we were living on Australia time, this second album from the McClymont sisters-three would already be old news. It came out there in January 2010, snapping up awards in the process. Of course, planning American invasions takes time. For this outing they brought in assistants with downright gaudy success - a producer with a mountain of (mostly Disney teen pop) success and a Taylor Swift MVP (producer Nathan Chapman).
