This is the third installment of the “Unstaged” series brought to you by YouTube, American Express and Vevo. The online experience kicks off with a pre-show that includes a special interview during which the band answers questions that were tweeted earlier this week.

If you miss the stream this evening, tune in for highlights from the show on Sugarland’s channel shortly thereafter.
