Memphis, TN - The highly anticipated annual concert series, Live at the Garden, hosted by the Memphis Botanic Garden, has announced that multi-platinum country music group Lady A will be headlining this year's event. The Grammy Award-winning trio is set to perform on September 10th, bringing their unique blend of contemporary country and pop music to fans in Memphis.
"We are thrilled to have such an accomplished and talented group like Lady A headline our concert series," said Michael D. Allen, Executive Director of the Memphis Botanic Garden. "Their captivating stage presence and energy will certainly make for a memorable night under the stars."

Set against a backdrop of lush gardens spanning over 96 acres within Audubon Park, this outdoor venue offers a truly magical experience for both performers and audiences alike.
Lady A – composed of Hillary Scott (vocals), Charles Kelley (vocals/guitar), and Dave Haywood (guitar/piano) – has been making waves since they first formed in Nashville back in 2006.
