Lady Antebellum Helping Rebuild Hope and Rebuild Lives

Can I just say that we LOVE Lady A? Talented, full of heart and ALWAYS there when needed by their fans in need, even those who may not yet be fans. They are yet another example of the power of country music, the coming together of people and the love of community. They make me proud to be a member of the "country club".

HERE'S THE STORY BEHIND THE EVENT:

Approximately 3 weeks ago, Lady A kicked off a contest for the chance to Own The Prom Night with a private concert at their high school's prom. After checking, rechecking and reviewing each and every submission that came in, the unanimous winner was Henryville, IN for their story of faith, steadfast resilience and sense of community following their tragic tornadoes earlier this month. If that wasn't enough to stir Lady A's emotions, schools nationwide submitted videos letting them know that Henryville High School truly deserved to win this contest.

Due to a previously scheduled commitment, Lady A won’t be able to make Henryville High School’s scheduled prom however being the wonderful and giving artists they are, they are heading up a special, much bigger party on May 16th in nearby Louisville, KY specifically for the high school's juniors and seniors, followed by a community benefit concert. Stay tuned to Lady A's website for further details for specific details pertaining to both events that will be udpated the next few days. Proceeds from the concert portion will go to the New Hope/Indiana Bankers Association for the benefit of the Disaster Relief Fund. 

For all those who would like to take part in relief efforts in Henryville, IN, your donations will go to the New Hope/Indiana Bankers Association for the benefit of the Disaster Relief Fund. All donations received stay locally within Henryville, IN and are used specifically for community members who have been affected by the tornado.
