LITTLE BIG TOWN SCORES SECOND CONSECUTIVE NUMBER-ONE SINGLE THIS WEEK! (AUDIO)

LITTLE BIG TOWN SCORES SECOND CONSECUTIVE NUMBER-ONE SINGLE THIS WEEK! (AUDIO)

Little Big Town scored their second consecutive number-one single with “Tornado,” which tops this Mediabase country chart this week. This number-one follows up their first chart-topper, “Pontoon,” which scored a two-week number-one last fall.

The video, which stars actor Jonathan Schaech (That Thing You Do), is a favorite of the fans, but not necessarily the fam. “It’s scary, and I will have to say compared to ‘Pontoon’ – our children loved watching the ‘Pontoon’ video,” says LBT’s Karen Fairchild. “This one, the fans seem to love, but our kiddies don’t like to watch this one that much.” The “Tornado” clip is nominated for the ACM Video of the Year, and the band scored three other nominations including Vocal Group of the Year, Album of the Year and Single of the Year for “Pontoon.”

Little Big Town are headed to London to perform at the O2 Arena in London this week, but they’re set to continue their Tornado Tour when they return.

AUDIO: Little Big Town says the fans love their ACM-nominated video, but their own children are a little bit spooked by the dark and formidable clip.

LBT (Tornado video-kids) OC: (Jimi) …little dark. [laughs] :17
KAREN: “Yeah, it’s scary, and I will have to say compared to ‘Pontoon’ – our children loved watching the ‘Pontoon’ video. This one [JIMI: “Not so much.”], the fans seem to love, but the kiddies don’t like to watch this one that much. [KIMBERLY: “They don’t care for it much.”] It’s a little spooky.” JIMI: “It’s a little dark. [laughs]”
