Released three years after Remigio Pereira, Victor Micallef, Fraser Walters, and Clifton Murray topped the holiday charts with 2009's certified platinum Christmas outing The Perfect Gift, the Tenors third full-length outing, the 12-track Lead with Your Heart, draws on influences from all over the world and from numerous genres. A lush mix of classical, opera, and pop, the album includes stirring renditions of Bob Dylan's "Forever Young," Elton John's "Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word," the much-beloved aria "Nessun Dorma," and new compositions that were co-written by the Tenors themselves. Lead with Your Heart also features guest appearances from Chris Botti ("Lullaby [The Smile Upon Your Face]") and Natalie Grant ("Amazing Grace"), and will eventually be accompanied by a PBS concert special CD/DVD that was recorded at the Smith Center for the Performing Arts in Las Vegas. ~ James Christopher Monger
