Harmonizing country music trio Lady Antebellum announced Monday that it is returning to the Twin Cities.

With seven Grammys to its credit, the trio's "Take Me Downtown" tour is scheduled to play at Target Center in downtown Minneapolis on Dec. 5.

Tickets go on sale Sept. 20. Prices have yet to be announced.

When the trio played the same venue in March 2012, tickets ranged from $27.50 to $52.50. Last year's tour took Lady Antebellum to 11 countries and was seen by more than 1 million fans.

Lady Antebellum has had seven No. 1 hits on the country radio charts and earned five platinum singles including its recent "Downtown."

On July 22, Lady Antebellum's Hillary Scott and her husband, Chris Tyrrell, welcomed a newborn girl.
