In a move signaling a bold new chapter in her illustrious career, country music icon Miranda Lambert has joined forces with Republic Records, embarking on a journey to explore fresh creative territories. The announcement comes hot on the heels of Lambert’s successful Velvet Rodeo residency in Las Vegas, capping off an impressive streak of achievements for the three-time GRAMMY winner and most awarded artist in Academy of Country Music history.
Lambert’s collaboration with Republic Records, facilitated in part by Nashville-based Big Loud, promises a strategic partnership aimed at propelling the artist to greater heights. The deal includes support for Lambert’s upcoming solo music ventures, with her first track under Republic, titled ‘Wranglers’ set for release on May 3.
Excitement surrounding Lambert’s new direction is palpable, especially as she gears up for a highly anticipated appearance at the Stagecoach festival on April 27. Fans worldwide can catch her electrifying set via Amazon Music livestream or tune in on SiriusXM’s The Highway.
Reflecting on her forthcoming single, Lambert shares, “‘Wranglers’ is a tale of a woman reclaiming her power. I think we can all relate to the character in this song, as we’ve all faced moments where we needed to summon our strength and seek a little retribution for past wrongs.”
Regarding her partnership with Republic Records, Lambert expresses enthusiasm, stating, “Having a new home has reignited a passion within me that I didn’t realize was still burning. This song feels reminiscent of ‘Gunpowder & Lead’; it possesses that same fiery energy. I’m thrilled to embark on this journey with my new label and share this new music with the world.”
Republic Founder and Chairman Monte Lipman comments, “Miranda Lambert’s legacy as both a master storyteller and legendary performer speaks volumes. Her upcoming music is nothing short of spectacular, and we’re honored to welcome her to Republic Records in collaboration with Big Loud.”
Republic President and Chief Operating Officer Jim Roppo adds, “We’re privileged that Miranda Lambert has entrusted us with this next phase of her career. As she puts the finishing touches on her remarkable new body of work, it’s evident that her signature sound is present, yet she continues to push boundaries as a songwriter, producer, and performer. We’re excited to embark on this journey together.”
In addition to her solo endeavours, Lambert recently announced a partnership with Seth England and Big Loud Records, launching the imprint Big Loud Texas. With a slew of tour dates scheduled throughout the summer, including headlining performances at major festivals like Rock the Country and Calgary Stampede, Lambert is poised to captivate audiences nationwide.
