Lady Antebellum Releasing New Album Own The Night September 13

Reigning CMA and ACM Vocal "Group of the Year" Lady Antebellum announced today that their third Capitol Nashville studio album OWN THE NIGHT will be released on SEPT. 13, 2011. The album's lead and record breaking track "Just A Kiss" has quickly become the fastest rising single of the trio's career, climbing into the Top 15 on Billboard's Country Singles chart in just five weeks.

"We took more time to write and record this record than we've ever done before," says Charles Kelley. "I remember looking at Hillary and Dave at the GRAMMYs this year, on the wildest night of our lives, and saying 'this is amazing...we'll never get to experience a moment like this again, but now we have to go home and get to work.'"

"And that's exactly what we did," adds Dave Haywood. "We packed up and flew home from LA, cleared our calendar of everything and went into rehearsal with the musicians. I love that part of recording...taking the songs we've written and bringing them to life with these musicians who are so incredibly talented."

"One of our favorite songs on the new record is called 'We Owned The Night,' which is about a special once-in-a-lifetime moment, and we thought that naming the album around that same sentiment was really appropriate," says Hillary Scott. "It's also about the experience we want to create every night in concert for our fans...together, we own the night!"

OWN THE NIGHT follows the band's GRAMMY winning second disc NEED YOU NOW. Since its release in Jan. 2010, the album has sold over five million copies across the globe, spawned three multi-week No. one hits ("Need You Now, American Honey, Our Kind of Love"), taken home five GRAMMY Awards and scored over a dozen other award show trophies.
