Eli Young Band frontman, Mike Eli and his wife Kacey are expecting a new bundle of joy according to People.com. The couple, who just celebrated their 2nd anniversary, found out they were pregnant on New Year’s Day.

She and her mom got me a couple books that I am reading, and it can be a little overwhelming,” he admits.

“I recommend reading them for the basics and what to expect during pregnancy, but they can’t teach you to be a good dad and a good partner. That’s up to me to figure out.”

Their baby girl is due on August 2nd.

For a group of guys who met – and got their start performing together – in college, it’s no surprise that the Eli Young Band recently headed back to campus. On Sunday (3/4), the 2012 ACM nominees headed to Towson University in Maryland to help the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity raise money for a charitable cause. Area radio station WPOC in Baltimore, sponsored EYB’s mini concert and the groups’ combined efforts garnered nearly $2,000 for St. Jude. The band played songs from their Republic Nashville album, including the #1 Platinum hit, “Crazy Girl,” and their single, “Even If It Breaks Your Heart.”

EYB is currently headlining the “Keep On Dreamin’ Tour” and will open for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s Australian tour, beginning next week. For more on Eli Young Band, visit www.eliyoungband.com

Eli Young Band Get Overwhelming Response to New Single “Even if it Breaks Your Heart”

Posted by Country Girl on March 5th, 2012

With their #1 Platinum hit, “Crazy Girl,” Republic Nashville’s Eli Young Band has become one of the most notable recent breakouts acts. A mere six weeks old, their Top 30 follow up single, “Even If It Breaks Your Heart,” is poised for similar success, especially if fans have anything to say. Footage from their recent two-night, sold-out stint at Joe’s Bar in Chicago exhibits EYB’s mass appeal with a lively following already singing along. A few days later, the band performed to a packed house during their first headlining show in St. Louis at The Pageant.

In the midst of their “Keep On Dreamin’ Tour” dates, EYB will also open for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s Australian tour. The band is nominated for the upcoming 2012 Academy of Country Music Awards in three categories – Single of the Year and Song of the Year as well as Vocal Group of the Year.
