Miranda Lambert has established herself as one of the foremost country singers and songwriters of the twenty-first century.
She got her start performing in her teens in her native Texas and got discovered while playing a gig in Nashville first came to prominence in 2004 with her debut album, Kerosene, which featured hit singles such as the title song, "Bring Me Down." and "Me and Charlie Talking." With the success of her follow-up LP Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Charlie and everyone else were talking about how Miranda Lambert had become a bona fide country and western star.
Since than, Ms. Lambert has had one successful album after another on the country charts, from 2009's Revolution to Four the Record (a pun on the fact that it was her fourth album) in 2011 and Platinum (the sales of which lived up to its name) in 2014. Her hits from the twenty-teens have included songs such as "Mama's Broken Heart" and "Somethin' Bad" (the latter a collaboration with Carrie Underwood, honored previously on this blog). With the 2016 release of her album The Weight of These Wings, which features the hit country single "Tin Man" (not the America song but a song she co-wrote with Jack Ingram and Jon Randall), Miranda Lambert shows no signs of slowing down.
She was married to country star Blake Shelton for four years beginning in 2011.
