Grammy Award-winning trio Lady Antebellum recently announced that Universal Music’s Josh Kelley and Randy Montana will join their-back-to back sold out concerts at the Ryman Auditorium on March 10 and 11 in Nashville. 
 
“It’s funny to think about all the bands Josh and I started when we were little kids in Augusta...my favorite was named ‘Spork,’ and I was the drummer!” laughed Charles Kelley, brother to Josh Kelley.  “We’ve come a long way, that’s for sure.  I’m so proud that we’ll be on the Ryman stage together on the same night. It’ll be a family affair all the way around”
 
“And, I’ve known Randy for a really long time because we’re both from Nashville,” added Hillary Scott.  “We respect him so much as a songwriter, and we are all three just big big fans.  We feel really blessed to be in a position to offer some of our friends the same shot that we were offered a few years ago.  I think back to our first tour with Martina...what an amazing opportunity that was...that’s the great thing about the Nashville music community...we’re always tryin’ to help each other! ”
 

Lady A sold out back-to-back shows at the Ryman in a dizzying 15 minutes.  They are currently nominated for a record seven Academy of Country Music Awards and will perform on the Late Show with David Letterman on Mon., March 8.  For more information, visit www.ladyantebellum.com.
