NASHVILLE,
TN – Apr. 22, 2016 – One third of the multi-PLATINUM group Lady
Antebellum’s Hillary Scott candidly shared an open letter to fans via
social media this morning, introducing her latest musical endeavor and
describing the story behind her sonically stunning first single “Thy
Will.” Serving as the debut from the forthcoming album LOVE REMAINS by Hillary Scott & The Scott Family, the tender track ships to Country and Christian radio today.
“I’m
so excited the day is finally here that I get to share with you all
what I’ve been up to,” announced Scott. “I have made a faith-based album
entitled LOVE REMAINS. The best part about this collection of songs is
that it is featuring my mom Linda Davis, my father Lang Scott and my
little sister Rylee Scott, all produced by Ricky Skaggs. So ladies and
gentlemen, I would like to introduce to you Hillary Scott & The
Scott Family. I wanted to first share ‘Thy Will.’ I wrote this song
about a very recent experience that left me heartbroken, asking why, and
facing some of my most difficult days. This song is my letter to God.
As I ask some really hard questions, I hold onto the truth that there is
so much to the story of my life that I can’t see, but that I still
choose to trust Him.”
The
faith-based country collection follows more than 11 million album sales
worldwide for Scott as one-third of the one of the world’s most popular
groups, Lady Antebellum. The trio has earned six PLATINUM singles and
dubbed ACM and CMA “Vocal Group of the Year” three years in a row. In
addition to co-writing six chart-topping Lady A hits including the 6x
PLATINUM hit “Need You Now,” Scott has also written for artists such as
Blake Shelton and Sara Evan’s No. one hit, “A Little Bit Stronger.” As a
former MTSU student, the university recently started a scholarship in
her honor for young women seeking a career in the music industry.
