NEW WILSON PHILLIPS ALBUM & TV SPECIAL COMING IN APRIL

Wilson Phillips are going to take advantage of the exposure they gained from Bridesmaids, y'all!! The 90s power trio will celebrate their 20th year in the music biz with the release of their first new album in eight years, Dedicated. A tribute to the groups they are most influenced by, Carnie and Wendy's dad Brian Wilson's group The Beach Boys and Chynna's parents' group The Mamas & The Papas, the album will contain a mix of hits from both bands. According to their website:
"The collection is made up entirely of classic songs by Brian Wilson's Beach Boys, father of Wendy and Carnie Wilson; and of John and Michelle Phillips' Mamas & The Papas, parents of Chynna Phillips. As the title indicates, it includes the iconic track Dedicated To The One I Love, the latter group's 1967 hit, along with other Mamas & The Papas landmark singles like California Dreamin’, Monday Monday, Twelve-Thirty and Got A Feeling. From The Beach Boys catalog are equally artful Wilson Phillips interpretations of Wouldn't It Be Nice, God Only Knows, Don't Worry Baby, In My Room and Good Vibrations."
FUN!! Their last album, California, released in 2004, was also a mix of songs they were raised on from Joni Mitchell and Neil Young to Linda Ronstadt. I can't wait for new Wilson Phillips!! Oh, and Wilson Phillips: Still Holding On Premieres April 8, 2012 on TV Guide Network. It's a documentary about the recording of the new album and what went on in the ladies' lives while they were making music. It's 1990 all over again!!!
