Lady Antebellum Changes Their Name

I always thought Lady ANTEBELLUM was a mouthful. So I, like most of their fans, called them Lady A.

Now they are making it official. Their tweet today explains:
After much personal reflection, band discussion, prayer and many honest conversations with some of our closest black friends and colleagues, we have decided to drop the word “antebellum” from our name and move forward as Lady A, the nickname our fans gave us almost from the start.

They go on to say:
We are deeply sorry for the hurt this has caused and for anyone who has felt unsafe, unseen or unvalued. Causing pain was never our heart’s intention, but it doesn’t change the fact that indeed, it did just that. So today, we speak up and make a change. We hope you will dig in and join us.


This is my favorite “Lady A” video. Hug your kids.
