Lady Antebellum is a country pop trio from Nashville, Tennessee. Formed in 2006 by Charles Kelley, Dave Haywood and Hillary Scott, the group has experienced a great deal of mainstream success with its poppy blend of singer/songwriter country and modern folk. The trio's music is largely acoustic in nature and is often full of sparse, unobtrusive arrangements of piano, pedal steel guitar and strings. Lady Antebellum's self-titled debut album arrived in 2008 and became an instant hit on country and adult contemporary radio stations while also debuting at number one on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart. 2010's Need You Now would bring even more attention to the group, spawning several hit singles and a couple of world tours.
