Wilson Phillips Performs on 'GMA'
N E W Y O R K, May 28, 2004 -- The amazing ladies who make up the multi-platinum trio Wilson Phillips are at it again. After a 12-year break from producing music together, the band has reunited.
In an interview with "Good Morning America's" Diane Sawyer, the threesome said they're enjoying working together again after the break and a lot of personal growth in their lives.
Carnie Wilson, 36, the daughter of Beach Boy Brian Wilson, lost 150 pounds after a gastric bypass since the band's last big run in the early '90s.She also got married in 2000 to musician Rob Bonfiglio.
Her sister Wendy Wilson, 34, is five months pregnant with her second child. She was married to producer Dan Knutson in 2001.
Chynna Phillips, 36, has two children. She married actor Billy Baldwin in 1995.
The group performed some of pop music's all-time hits on Good Morning America, as part of the show's ongoing Summer Concert Series.
The ladies perfomed with their back-up band, The Better Days, led by Carnie's husband. They performed the Eagles' hit, "Already Gone," Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way" and their own No. 1 single from 1990, "Hold On."
Their new album, "California," is the band's first album since 1992's "Shadows and Light." The album includes California pop songs originally recorded by artists such as the Beach Boys, The Mamas & the Papas, Joni Mitchell, Linda Ronstadt, Jackson Browne, Fleetwood Mac, Eagles and The Byrds.
Chynna Phillips says when they began working together again, after 12 years, everything came together like they had never been apart.
"Well, we have all matured. Our voices have matured. But the blend is exactly the same, which, I was a tiny bit nervous," Phillips said. "I thought all these years have passed. I wonder if it's gonna sound any different and it didn't. Not a day had passed," she said on "Good Morning America."
The trio's break came after they experienced great success and tackled grueling schedules in the early 1990s.
