Family Affair
Lady Antebellum is comprised of three members, Charles Kelley, Dave Haywood and vocalist Hilary Scott. Hilary is the daughter of famed country singer Linda Davis, and Charles is the brother of pop country artist Josh Kelley. Lady Antebellum formed in Nashville, Tennessee in 2006. Charles and Dave were old school friends who decided to team up and write and make music together. They met Hilary at a show where she recognized them from MySpace, and they invited her to join the band. The name Antebellum comes from when the group used to take photos of “antebellum” homes.
