Show

edit

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]
