" The southern cuties of brother-sister group The Band Perry are not only super down to earth and seriously fun, but their bold and fearless attitudes are totally inspiring! We sat down with our fave country trio as they kicked off their (first!) headline world tour We Are Pioneers in NYC, and now we&amp;#039;re officially OBSESSED! And here&amp;#039;s why you&amp;#039;ll want to besties with The Band Perry, too! 1. They Really Love Their Fans! Of course every singing sensation will tell you they are all about their fans, but with these guys you can just tell they genuinely adore and appreciate their super-supportive fan base. Neil gushed about the band&amp;#039;s excitement for their first headlining tour telling us, &amp;quot;One of the big things that makes us really excited about our own tours is that the people coming out are going to be 100% Band Perry fans. They know every word to every single song and they&amp;#039;re the craziest, so I think that&amp;#039;s what we&amp;#039;re really excited about!&amp;quot; 2. They&amp;#039;re Totally Fearless!  I mean, what do you do after a mega worldwide hit like &amp;quot;If I Die Young&amp;quot;? That was the exact question on The Band Perry&amp;#039;s minds when trying to figure out what to do next. &amp;quot;It was a scary thing when you&amp;#039;re barreling toward your future and you have no idea how you&amp;#039;re going to get there or what it&amp;#039;s going to look like when you do!&amp;quot; Kimberly told us. So how did they get to the amazingness that is their new album Pioneer? &amp;quot;it was kind of the spirit of being the underdog, but being it with reckless abandon, bold, marching forward and making noise.&amp;quot; Which is exactly what Pioneer stands for! Steal their secret for becoming overwhelmed by doubts and pressure: &amp;quot;Always be open to constructive criticism, but don&amp;#039;t let that ever discourage you from being who you are and being the best you can be.&amp;quot;  3. They&amp;#039;re Still So Down To Earth!  Okay, who didn&amp;#039;t tear up when Santana sang &amp;quot;If I Die Young&amp;quot; during Glee&amp;#039;s Cory Monteith tribute episode? It totally speaks to how awesome The Band Perry&amp;#039;s music is, but also how humble the group is despite all their success, telling us how honored they were to be a part of the show: &amp;quot;It was amazing. Just to be a part of that tribute show in the first place was a huge honor. &amp;#039;If I die Young&amp;#039; ironically is a song about celebrating life, and obviously with Cory, that&amp;#039;s what the entire episode was about. It was a huge honor for the song to be included. And she did a great job too!&amp;quot; You can check out the country stars on the road for their We Are Pioneers tour, now!
