Lady A Get Digital Gold, Paisley at the White House, Etc.

July 27, 2009/by Sarah Skates

lady-aCapitol Nashville trio Lady Antebellum’s first No. 1 hit “I Run To You” also becomes the group’s first Gold digital single this week as the RIAA certifies it for over 500,000 downloads. The band’s eponymous debut is also Gold. Lady Antebellum is currently on the road with Kenny Chesney playing arenas and stadiums across the country, and will join Keith Urban for their first trek to Canada later this fall. Fans can catch the trio performing on the two-hour special CMA Music Festival: Country’s Night to Rock on Aug. 31 on ABC.

Last Tuesday night July 21, Brad Paisley was one of the performers at the Country installment of the White House’s music series. He played for the President, First Lady and family, members of Congress, and students from around the country, including many from Nashville. Also performing at the event were Alison Krauss and Union Station, and Charley Pride. And by the way, that looks like Country Music Hall of Fame boss Kyle Young on the front row. The Hall provided educational content for the program, and the CMA sponsored the trips of 40 local students.
