The members of Lady Antebellum were featured on ABC’s Nightline last night, and they talked about their plans following their hugely successful Wheels Up 2015 Tour, as well as Charles Kelley‘s new solo project, his single “The Driver” that just arrived at country radio. Check out the interview with the Grammy winners below.

Lady Antebellum’s Charles Kelley revealed details about his new solo single, “The Driver,” on Good Morning America, and he squashed any rumors of a band breakup. Charles tells ABC’s Juju Chang, “Lady Antebellum is always going to be my priority. There was just this artistic pull that I just wanted to just try this.”

“The Driver” is the debut single from his forthcoming solo project on Capitol Records Nashville. It was written by Charles, Eric Paslay and Abe Stoklasa.

His unmatched perspective of hours spent on the road pursuing a life-long dream is present through his impeccable voice, along with special guests Dierks Bentley and Paslay.

“The perspective seemed like a Crosby, Stills, and Nash story song,” Charles says of the lyrics. “We went in the studio to record it with no agenda. I thought maybe it’ll be the start of the next Lady Antebellum record, maybe we’ll scrap it, maybe I’ll pitch the song to other singers.”

“Having Hillary and Dave’s support means a lot to me,” adds Kelley. “We love each other and we’re having a blast. This was just a pure musical detour, to take myself out of my own head and off the treadmill for a minute. I hope and think it can bring in a fresh perspective when we go back in to make the next Lady Antebellum record.”

Charles Kelley will appear on ABC’s Good Morning America Monday (October 5th) to talk about his upcoming solo project with the network’s JuJu Chang.

Charles and his bandmates, Hillary Scott and Dave Haywood, are featured on ABC’s Nightline. The trio take cameras backstage for an exclusive inside look at their sold-out headlining show during their hometown stop at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena.

Canaan Smith stopped by the ESPN studios to discuss his love of Tar Heel basketball, why Tony Stewart has always been his favorite NASCAR driver and his father’s early influence on music and sports.

After a sold-out performance for their first-ever headlining hometown stop at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Friday (9/11), Lady Antebellum will wrap their headlining WHEELS UP 2015 TOUR having proven “the group is far from running out of steam” (Billboard) with an “effervescent evening of impeccable harmonies” (The Tennessean). The 65-city tour that first launched in Europe earlier this year will soar into its final destination this weekend with shows in Pittsburgh, PA tonight (9/18) and Camden, NJ tomorrow (9/19).

“It’s hard to believe that we’re in the last weekend of this tour after checking off so many bucketlist moments with this show,” shares Lady A’s Charles Kelley. “The tour was our dream come true and it’s hard to really sum up exactly how much that means to us. We’re looking forward to spending a lot of time this winter writing new music – and we can’t wait for the next chapter of Lady A.”

In addition to selling out their first-ever hometown arena show, last weekend also marked a special moment for the CMA nominated trio as they surprised Navy veteran Alejandro Tamez, with a year of mortgage relief as their last 7FOR7 giveaway with Quicken Loans. To watch a recap video of their moving 7FOR7 initiative on the road this summer, click here.

The group set aside a portion of every ticket purchased over the course for their 2015 Tour to put towards the multi-level organization, which helps bring awareness and generate support for children locally, nationally and globally. LadyAID is a component fund of The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.

Fans can still celebrate the hit-packed trek, as Palladia will air the “Lady Antebellum: Wheels Up Tour” live special on Saturday, Sept. 26. For more information, visit www.ladyantebellum.com.

On September 11, 2001, the world changed forever with the devastating attacks on both the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.  Alan Jackson’s “Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)” embodied the thoughts and feelings of millions in the wake of the events that took place 14 years ago.

There is audio from country superstar Alan Jackson sharing memories and thoughts on the events of September 11, 2001 and discussing his song, “Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning),” as well as remembrances from Lady Antebellum and Eric Church.

The chorus and melody of “Where Were You…” came to Jackson in the middle of the night several weeks after the 9/11 tragedies. He awoke…sang the words into a recorder and wrote down key elements of the chorus…and completed the lyrics and verses later that same day. Initially reluctant to record the song, he was convinced by family and friends to share it with the world and debuted “Where Were You…” live on national television in early November at the 35th annual CMA Awards.
