World Famous Ink Spots and Ventriloquist April Brucker Release Unique New Single "That's The Way It Is"

LAS VEGAS, NV - The World Famous Ink Spots, heirs to the legacy of one of America's most beloved vocal groups, have teamed up with April Brucker (America's foremost female ventriloquist) for a one-of-a-kind new release: "That's the Way It Is."

The single features Ink Spots lead singer Pernell Berry alongside Brucker's hilariously glamorous gold-digger puppet, May Wilson, in a witty and nostalgic duet. This marks the first time in history that an Ink Spots group has collaborated on a recording with a ventriloquist.

The track is a reprise of the classic 1945 recording famously performed as a duet with Ella Fitzgerald and Ink Spots lead singer Bill Kenny. Originally recorded at the historic Decca studios, "That's the Way It Is" soared to the No. 1 spot on the U.S. Pop Charts. This new version pays tribute to that timeless hit while offering a fresh, lighthearted twist for a new generation of fans.

"The Ink Spots are known for breaking musical ground, and this collaboration with April Brucker and May Wilson is another exciting chapter in our story," said Pernell Berry. "It's fun, unexpected, and a nod to the playful side of classic American music."

Formed in the early 1930s, the original Ink Spots were pioneers in developing a distinctive vocal harmony style that influenced countless artists and helped shape the future of rhythm and blues and rock and roll.

"I've always been a fan of The Ink Spots, and getting to sing with them-even through it's my puppet May-is a dream come true," said Brucker, who is widely known for her TV appearances and her cult following as "That Puppet Girl" on TLC's "My Strange Addiction."

Eddie "Coco" Stancil leader of the World Famous Ink Spots, said, "We wanted to honor the legacy of The Ink Spots while adding a unique and playful twist. This collaboration celebrates not only the enduring appeal of The Ink Spots' music but also the joyful, unexpected magic that happens when classic harmonies meet comedy and ventriloquism."

The single is now available for streaming and download worldwide on Amazon, Apple Music, Pandora, Spotify, and other major platforms. The official music video is also live on YouTube and other music video outlets.
