Lady Antebellum Postpones Tour Three Months to Promote New Album

Lady Antebellum has postponed the start of its 60-date concert tour to 2014.

The country music trio announced on its website that its "Take Me Downtown Tour" will begin Jan. 10, 2014, in Peoria, Ill. The three-month delay is due in part to the scheduled Nov. 12 release of the band's new album, "Golden," and the promotional events associated with it.

Their tour had been scheduled to start Nov. 8 in Omaha, Neb.

"To accommodate the new release and in order to give you guys the best show possible, we've had to move things around on our tour schedule," the band said on their website. "We hope these changes aren't too much trouble for you, and that we'll get to see you in one of the more than 60 cities the tour will hit next year."

Hillary Scott, Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley have been on hiatus since Scott gave birth to a daughter earlier this summer. On Monday, she posted a photo on Twitter.
