From a very young age the girls spent every weekend traveling up and down the east coast of Australia doing the hard yards of the well-worn country music talent quests. The McClymonts were finally able to unleash their musical alchemy and soaring vocal perfection when they were found and signed by Universal Music Australia. They toured Australia performing to full houses every night supporting multi-award winner and Australian of The Year Lee Kernaghan, along with music festivals across the country. The girls were also invited to perform for the Australian troops based in Iraq and Afghanistan over Christmas and New Years 2006 and 2007. They spent 15 days in the desert flown around by Hercules to numerous bases situated all over the Middle East, playing 12 concerts as part of the Tour De Force program. Since the Australian release of their album, “Chaos and Bright Lights,” the media quickly recognized their increasing popularity. They appeared numerous times on popular Australian television shows including Sunrise, The Today Show, Mornings with Kerri-Anne, and the high-rated lifestyle show, “Geta-way,” where the girls presented their hometown of Grafton (NSW) to the nation. They also appeared on the Australian Series, ‘Neighbors,’ in 2008. Following the spotlight of press, magazine shoots and radio inter-views, they were thrilled to be invited to perform on one of Sydney’s top-rated radio stations, NOVA, with the infamous breakfast crew Mer-rick and Rosso. The McClymonts stake their claim and aim to create their own music history, one that is rich with magical voices, heartfelt lyrics and unforgettable melodies. They were discovered by American record executives, Jacob Capricciuolo and Jimmy Swan, when on business in Australia. They came across one of The McClymonts' music videos while watching Australian TV and instantly knew their music had to be heard by Americans. It became reality with the help of Universal Music Australia. Executive Music Nashville, a Division of Executive Music Group, is proud to unveil the talented female trio in North America. |
