BMLG’s Lady Antebellum is the latest recipient of the Randy Owens Angels Among Us Award presented by St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Announced during the 31st anniversary of Country Cares for St. Jude Kids, the award was presented to the seven-time Grammy-winning trio by Alabama’s Randy Owen and President/CEO of ALSAC, Richard Shadyac Jr. The evening also included a donation of $50k to St. Jude from ACM Lifting Lives made in Lady Antebellum’s name.
The country trio has supported St. Jude’s mission over the years through contributions including LadyAID, performing benefit concerts, participating in the This Shirt Saves Lives campaign, spending time with patients and more. Last year, they also hosted the inaugural St. Jude Presents: Curated event, collecting more 650k+ for the hospital by fellow music industry members.
Lady A’s Hillary Scott says, "As parents ourselves, being an ambassador for St. Jude over the years has been one of the most gratifying experiences we've had in our career. This is one of the highest honors we could receive and we are so thankful to contribute even a tiny part in the amazing efforts made by St. Jude."
Shadyac adds, "The Angels Among Us Award signifies the heart, generosity and passion the group has continually shown St. Jude for the last decade, and Hillary, Charles and Dave are so deserving of this distinction as members of our St. Jude family.”
Lady Antebellum, pictured below, join seven prior recipients of the award, including Jake Owen, Brad Paisley and Darius Rucker, among others.
