Background[]

After taking a year off from releasing new music and touring; in January 2017, Lady Antebellum announced that would be going on tour in 2017, as well as releasing new music.[1] They plan to play sixty-five shows in six countries including going back to Europe and trekking to South Africa for the first time.[2] South African tour dates were announced on March 1, 2017[3] and European dates were announced on March 7.

The official hotel sponsor of the tour is Hilton in which they will give their Hilton Honor members "access to original content and once in a lifetime experiences."[2]

Show[]

Lady Antebellum opens up the show with their hit "Downtown" followed by "Our Kind of Love". Next is a new track off Heart Break, "This City". During this performance up on the screen there is a sign that says "Welcome to" followed by the city they're performing in that night. Halfway through Hillary Scott performs her own hit "Thy Will" accompanied by Dave Haywood on keys. Horns and additional percussion are brought in for "You Look Good". They also perform past hits, new material off Heart Break, and covers such as "You're Still the One", "Something Like That" and "Crazy in Love". The encore is made up of "Bartender" and "Need You Now".[4][5]
