Miranda Lambert Shares Details on Her New Album

Lambert proudly revealed that she recorded her new album in the Lone Star State. “I hadn’t made an album in Texas since I was 18,” she added. “I went down to Arlyn Studios in Austin and Jon Randall who’s my bestie and co-writer and co-producer, we worked together a lot,” she added. Lambert’s fans will likely remember Randall’s name from the 2021 collaborative album that Lambert and Randall recorded with Jack Ingram, The Marfa Lights.  

“Just going home to Texas to make it felt really right for this new season and this new chapter,” Lambert explained. “I signed with Republic Records and this new team has just given me so much fire and inspiration because it’s all about the music with them,” she added. The “Kerosene” singer went on to say that she’s excited to share the new album. “It’s very country. You can tell we made it in Texas,” she said.

“All I know is I’ve got a lot more to say, and a lot more music coming soon,” Lambert said upon releasing the new single. “So, for anyone who’s ever seen themselves in one of my songs, especially the rowdy ones, get ready! We wanted to come with something that really says something from the start. There’s a whole lot of feelings and rhythms and great playing to come,” she promised.
