CURRENT #1 SINGLE: “Champagne Night”
Lady A cancelled their Ocean tour in 2020, and after almost a year of not being on the road, they are chomping at the bit to get out there. “We have to get back to touring at some point and time,” says Dave Haywood. “I miss it so much. I mean, I miss it for the fans, I miss it for us gettin’ to do what we’re called to do and what we love to do. I miss it for all the people that we would have been employing for the road as well, and just how much we love bein’ out there.”
Anybody who tells you when touring will finally start to fire back up more consistently is just guessing at this point, but Dave says, “I’m hopin’ and prayin’ – we’re all in a holding pattern. We all have no idea how long we’re gonna be waiting, but I hope and pray that sometime this fall we can do something, in some capacity, whether it’s big or small, whatever is safe to do. I hope there can be something this year because man, we need it.”
Charles Kelley is feeling optimistic that some sort of normalcy in touring will return later this year. “I mean, summer could happen,” he says. “That might be ambitious, but we have a good feeling about fall at least.”
Lady A – good feeling about fall :37
