The Lady Antebellum YOU LOOK GOOD WORLD TOUR, presented by NABISCO, is only one part of the snack brand's "Remix Your BBQ" integrated marketing campaign – including in-store sampling, PR, social media and influencer engagement – geared to inspire families to add NABISCO snacks into their summer BBQ line up.

The NABISCO food truck will also bring the unique BBQ-meets-concert experience to select retail locations.
The brand is driving the BBQ conversation on social through a dedicated "Remix Your BBQ" Pinterest board – a one-stop BBQ planning hub with fun summer recipes, Lady Antebellum playlist and more, challenging families to skip the traditional burgers and hot dogs this summer and remix their BBQ menu with some NABISCO inspiration, including RITZ BBQ Chipotle Pulled Chicken Toppers, OREO Key Lime Pie Bites, TRISCUIT Caprese Pesto Chicken Bites, and CHIPS AHOY! Southern "Peach Cobbler" Parfaits.

About Lady Antebellum
With a new sense of history and possibilities, Lady Antebellum's sixth studio album HEART BREAK (Capitol Records Nashville), out June 9th, had Dave Haywood, Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott on a new mission — setting aside time to put themselves in new surroundings, and concentrate on writing and exploring musical endeavors with no distractions. Alongside producer busbee, their desire to shake things was made evident by the record's debut lead track and current single, "You Look Good," as the "soul-infused single makes good use of horns" (Washington Post). Additionally, the trio had a hand in writing eleven songs on HEART BREAK, resulting in their most intimate and heartfelt work to date. The new music follows more than 18 million units, nine No. One hits, ACM and CMA "Vocal Group of the Year" trophies three years in a row, and countless other honors including Billboard Music Awards, People's Choice Awards and Teen Choice Awards.
