New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Parkwood Entertainment and Columbia Records announce that the sister duo
Chloe x Halle will release their debut full-length album on Friday, March 23, 2018. Written and executively produced by
Chloe Bailey, 19 and Halle Bailey, 17, The Kids Are Alright is available for pre-order starting now.
For almost three years now, fans of the duo have been privy to their constant growth, keening harmonies and genuine musical moments, including stylish videos for "Drop" and "Fall." They have watched an evolution in beautiful progress as
Chloe x Halle gave glimpses of the magic that was to come through their creative covers and gorgeously understated videos of covers of some of today's most popular songs in every genre. Whether on YouTube, Instagram, concert stages, magazine fashion spreads or television appearances,
Chloe x Halle left memorable impressions and built anticipation for their debut full-length release.
It was their soulful rendition of Beyoncé's own "
Pretty Hurts" that caught the attention of the global icon's Parkwood Entertainment imprint in 2013. In the spring of 2016
Chloe x Halle released their stunning debut EP, Sugar Symphony, braided by numinous forces equal to their sibling DNA: Mystically layered harmonies, peerless production instincts, and an adjoining R&B/pop destiny intertwined with mentor Beyoncé.
Beyoncé initially met the girls on a film shoot more than a decade ago, all setting the table for their genre-pushing debut "Drop." In the summer of 2016 they left a lasting impression in
Europe while on tour as an opening act for Beyoncé's 2016 hugely successful "The Formation World Tour."
In the spring of 2017,
Chloe x Halle released their self-described, "This is not an album" and "not really a mixtape" critically acclaimed project, The Two of Us, which featured brand new music mostly written and produced by the duo. They were also named People Magazine's Ones to Watch.
Last December,
Chloe x Halle released the theme song for "GROWN-ISH," the "BLACK-ISH" spin-off that has been met with overwhelming praise for its honest portrayals of teen lives in college. They were added to the cast as series regulars, after initially signing on for recurring roles. "Grown" and its accompanying music video, which featured the sisters using a variety of Snapchat Lenses, also received praises from fans and critics alike. Then they followed-up quickly with "The Kids Are Alright," featured prominently in the series debut episode and today could be described accurately as the title track to their upcoming album.
"Our debut album 'The Kids Are Alright' means so much to us," state
Chloe x Halle. "This is three years of self-discovery, vulnerability, and growth, all put into one album. We've put our hearts and souls into every lyric, every beat, and we cannot wait for the world to hear."
The wait is over. Pre-order The Kids Are Alright here. The album includes new gems, "Fake," "Hi Lo," "Galaxy," "Happy Without Me," "Grown," "The Kids Are Alright" and "Warrior," which is also featured in the upcoming Disney movie, "A Wrinkle In Time."
