“That's kind of the theme of Own the Night. It's about those nights that are so memorable you could live them forever.”

“One of Lady Antebellum's first big tours was opening up for Kenny Chesney.”

“I'm a real fan of that Foster the People song 'Pumped Up Kicks.'”

“One of my most memorable Thanksgiving memories was probably the first year that me and my two brothers decided to start our annual eating contest. We ate throughout the whole day.

“When you do anything for eight or nine years, you start getting a little comfortable; you start taking things for granted.”

“There's always expectation with a Lady A single.”
