Luck Be a "Lady"


Lady Antebellum is probably my favorite band right now. I can't stop listening to their self-titled debut country album that has garnered heavy press and newcomer awards everywhere. It is such a great combo of Southern rock and great country music. Here are a few things to check out and learn more about this relatively new Nashville band.
1) Their "Celebrity Playlists" on iTunes. Their inspirations will delight all of SCOPE and others alike. The trio each showcase the faves of each member, with clear favorites Augustana, Dave Barnes, Matt Wertz, and John Mayer.
2) Charles Kelley is the brother of musician and Katherine-Heigl's hubby, Josh Kelley.
3) They are sort of like a mix between Sugarland and Little Big Town, other notable and successful country groups.
4) The hooks on tracks like their first two singles "Love Don't Live Here" and "Lookin For a Good Time" along with my favorite ballad "All We'd Ever Need" are out of this world!
5) CMT and the concert circuit endorse the heck outta them. That's all I need to know.
6) The group features alternating male and female lead vocals. A nice change-up from the usual band formula.
6) They will be playing a FREE concert in Des Moines for the Iowa State Fair in August. What a catch at this point in their career!!
Hope you fall in love with this lucky "Lady" like I did.
