Lady Antebellum has announced plans for a Christmas album called On This Winter’s Night, which will be available in stores on Oct. 22.
“We recorded this album in two sections, but both times were in the summertime,” noted Dave Haywood. “It is always weird to be in the studio working on Christmas music in June and July, so we decorated the entire studio, we really did. We brought out lights, fake trees and decorated the place to get in the Christmas spirit. You’d leave the studio, and it’d be 100 degrees out in Nashville, but nonetheless, a great experience.”
Between legs of their Own The Night 2012 World Tour earlier this year, Lady A hit the studio in Nashville to record the holiday collection which they co-produced alongside Paul Worley. For the festive release, the trio penned the album’s title track and created their own arrangements for two of the disc’s additional 11 holiday classics.
