New Details On Lady Antebellum’s Upcoming Album

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Lady Antebellum’s Charles Kelley revealed new details on the trios upcoming album:

“We all remember high school dances, and how innocent those little moments were,” he says. “I think there’s gonna be a lot of nostalgic songs on the record. Maybe that’s just because we’re all getting a little older. Now we’re so busy and there’s a little part of us that yearns for a time when it was a little simpler. I don’t know what fueled that.”

“If we were to use the success of ‘Need You Now’ as the barometer for every other song, then we’ll probably be highly disappointed. That song will probably undoubtedly be the biggest song of our career. We can hopefully have success for 20 years, but we may not ever have the success of that one particular song again. But we might. You never know. But we’re gonna try not to chase it, is what I’m sayin’. If we try to chase that too much, we’ll start to deviate from what made the sound of the group.”

Following the success of ‘Need You Now’, their approach on the new album is more realistic than trying to top one of the biggest hits in country music.
