Lady Antebellum

There’s no better illustration of Lady A's captivating, chart-dominating chemistry than their colossal hit “Need You Now,” a smoldering anthem of late-night redemption that balances meticulous musical craftsmanship, glittering pop savvy, and emotional gravitas.

It’s a formula that propelled Hillary Scott, Charles Kelly, and Dave Haywood—who were formerly known as Lady Antebellum, but changed their name in 2020 because of its associations with slavery—to megastardom.

The trio formed after a few songwriting sessions in 2006, then connected with veteran producers Victoria Shaw (of Garth Brooks) and Paul Worley (of the Dixie Chicks) for their self-titled full-length in 2008.
