Lady Antebellum will try to score their 11th No. 1 single with the release of âWhat Iâm Leaving Forâ on Feb. 18.
Penned by Sam Ellis, Micah Premnath and Laura Veltz, âWhat Iâm Leaving Forâ is featured on Lady Aâs 2019 album, Ocean, and follows the release of lead single, âWhat If I Never Get Over You.â
âI wore out the demo for this song,â says Lady Aâs Dave Haywood. âI immediately related to it. Itâs so hard stepping away from your family the way we do, and that song is such a great, beautiful way of articulating what weâre out here doing this forâour families, and those that we love and the fans that love us, too. This song is a beautiful picture of that push and pull of our journey.â
âThis song really describes exactly where weâre at in our lives and the give and take to try to find a personal balance with career and family,â says Lady Aâs Hillary Scott. âWhether you are in the military, returning from maternity leave or just experiencing those tender-hearted âgoodbyes,â we hope it resonates and evokes a piece of comfort in the example we set for our children.â
Lady Aâs video for âWhat Iâm Leaving Forâ features a number of âhome moviesâ with the trioâs six kids.
