The Perrys announced Monday the addition of Scott Brand as lead singer and new baritone Austin Olvey.
Scott, a native of Lineville, Alabama, is a former member of Gold City and has toured with Ernie Dawson and Heirline.
“Libbi and I have been friends a long time and it’s a great honor to not only be apart of a 50 year old rich legacy but be on stage with one of the greatest voices that has ever stepped on a gospel stage! The future is very bright and I’m looking forward to what God has planned for me and for The Perrys,” said Scott.
Austin is from Chattagnooga, TN. He says he’s always dreamed of singing with a group like the Perrys since he was a child.
“The Bible says, if you delight yuorself in the Lord, He will give you the desires of your heart. He is faithful and has kept His promises,” said Austin.
