NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – The short hiatus country vocal trio Lady Antebellum announced in 2015 kept them apart for longer than they had been in a decade. Hillary Scott and Charles Kelley went in different directions on their solo albums, while Dave Haywood honed his skills as a producer.

So when they did reunite in the studio last year, they spent as much time together as possible.

“We lived together for two months pretty much, half of it in Florida and half of the other time we wrote and recorded in Los Angeles,” Scott, 30, said.

“Dave cooked for us,” Kelley, 35, said.

“And all kinds of craft cocktails,” Haywood, 34, added.
