Republic Nashville Goes Ape

Republic Nashville went “Ape” today after hearing that The Band Perry’s new release scanned a total of 52,500 albums this week. There’s no way to tell who is wearing the monkey suits, but note that Republic Nashville President Jimmy Harnen and Big Machine Founder/CEO Scott Borchetta both seem to curiously be missing????

TBP debuted on the Billboard Country Album chart at No. 2 this week. The young sibling group has been nominated for CMA Vocal Group of the Year plus received three nominations for the new American Country Awards set to air Dec. 6 from Las Vegas on FOX.

“If I Die Young” TBP’s hit single was recently certified Gold by the RIAA.
