Lady Antebellum says they’re changing their name, a new report from the New York Post revealed. The group announced on their Twitter today to say that they would be changing their name amid the Black Lives Matter protests, around the same time that NASCAR also said they would be banning the use of Confederate flags at their events.

As it was previously reported, Lady Antebellum first came on to the scene in a big way back in 2009 with their song, “Need You Now,” which went on to win Record and Song of the Year at the Grammys.

On Twitter, the trio explained why they chose to rename their band following the tragic death of George Floyd. The group says that fans should call them “Lady A” from now on.
