Merrill Osmond has joined the line-up of The Osmond Brothers show at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts (CCPA) on Friday, October 10 at 8 p.m. The family act, which has thrilled millions with a colorful discography and lively performances that embrace barbershop music, pop, rock, and country, just celebrated its 50th year in entertainment.
With 77 million albums sold, more than 30 gold records, and a People’s Choice Award for “Favorite Musical Group,” this band of brothers— which features Merrill, Jay, Jimmy, and Wayne— continues to appeal to fans since being discovered five decades ago. Created in 1957 as a barbershop quartet that appeared at Utah state fairs and amusement parks, The Osmond Brothers were hired in 1962 by a Disney talent scout to perform at Disneyland, which led to an appearance on The Andy Williams Show.
The Osmond Brothers’ timeless appeal is evident in the 2003 Greatest Country Hits album. The family was honored that same year for its achievement in the entertainment industry with a star on the legendary Hollywood Walk of Fame.
