Seven-time GRAMMY award-winning trio Lady Antebellum will roll into Bozeman at the Brick Breeden Fieldhouse on Saturday, January 25, 2014 with their TAKE ME DOWNTOWN TOUR 2014. The group has invited Kip Moore and Jana Kramer to join the arena tour. Beginning Friday, November 15, fans can purchase tickets at the Bobcat Ticket Office and special VIP experiences at www.cidentertainment.com/ladyantebellum.

 

"We spent almost every day last year backstage writing for our album GOLDEN, so we were really focused on writing songs that would connect with the fans in these arenas.  We definitely learned a lot about ourselves as live performers and the type of catalog we wanted to have so that we could go out and try to give the fans the best show they've ever experienced," explains Lady A's Charles Kelley.  "All of that was the jumping off point for this tour, and now it's time to take it to the next level." 

 

Last year, Lady A hosted over one million fans across the globe in 11 countries on their first headlining world tour, which earned them Billboard Touring's "Breakthrough Award," CMA's "International Artists Achievement Award" and will accept the "Jim Reeves International Award" at this fall's ACM Honors. The shows were inspirational and critics praised the band's "youthful exuberance and unending energy." 

  

The harmony-based trio Lady Antebellum continues to reaffirm the very beginnings of Lady Antebellum by focusing on deft songwriting and fresh uses of their talents, which was at the heart of what drew them together in the first place. Since its 2006 inception, Lady A has won the "Vocal Group of the Year" honor from both the CMA and from the ACM's three times in a row and sold over 11 million albums worldwide. The trio has taken seven trips to No. one on the country radio charts, earned five Platinum singles including their recent "Downtown" and has been awarded with seven GRAMMY awards including the all-genre "Record of the Year" and "Song of the Year." And in September, the band was nominated for two 2013 CMA Awards--Vocal Group of the Year and Video of the Year. In the end, the mix of their road experiences, songwriting and creative partnership have allowed the magic to remain - because they have kept the focus on the music.

 

Lady A will release a new CD, "Golden Deluxe", on November 11. The album includes five new songs added to the original release. Among the new songs is the band's latest single, "Compass", which continues to enjoy increased airplay on country music radio stations in the U.S. and Canada.

 

Platinum-selling artist Kip Moore's recent No. one hit "Hey Pretty Girl" follows two consecutive No. one songs off his debut album UP ALL NIGHT, which was the best selling debut album from any country artist released last year. His first No. one single, "Somethin' 'Bout A Truck," held the top spot on both charts for two weeks making him the first solo artist in four years to have a debut album's first single go No. one for multiple weeks. He has already sold out dozens of headlining shows this year, often in just minutes. Moore's career reached another milestone as he just received his first CMA nomination for 2013 New Artist of the Year.
