Miranda Lambert Releases First New Music Under Republic Records In Partnership With Big Loud

AUSTIN (CelebrityAccess)—Miranda Lambert has never held back regarding her music. A bold assertion of empowerment amidst relationship turmoil, Lambert has released “Wranglers” following the news of her alliance with Republic Records and the Nashville-based Big Loud. The most-awarded artist in Academy of Country Music (ACM) history, Lambert blazes forth like scorching desert heat, heralding the next phase of her creative journey. With her sharp vocals and electrifying guitar riffs, Lambert delves into the slow burn of love’s demise, the indifference of unperceptive partners, and the resilience of a woman shaping her fate.

Describing “Wranglers” as a classic tale of reclaiming power, Lambert reflects on the universal experience of finding strength and seeking retribution against those who wronged us. Penned by Audra Mae, Evan McKeever, and Ryan Carpenter, the song’s ominous guitar introduction evokes echoes of Neil Young’s Crazy Horse and Waylon Jennings, paving the way for a potent country anthem resonating with anyone breaking free from oppressive circumstances.

Teaming up with Grammy-winning songwriter/producer Jon Randall and an ensemble of accomplished musicians at Austin’s Arlyne Recording Studios, Lambert crafts a sonic landscape where emotions run high. Amidst Jedd Hughes and Ethan Ballinger’s electric guitar convergence is as fraught as the fevered clouds of B-3 from Texas legend Bukka Allen. With Rachel Loy’s bass lumbering across Conrad Choucroun’s sticks-on-the-rims drum part, pressure builds as Lambert’s impassioned vocals draw listeners into a narrative of righteous fury and redemption.

Lambert debuted the song live at the Stagecoach Festival, marking the dawn of a new chapter in her storied career. “Wranglers” is now available on all streaming platforms. You can listen to the first single under her new deal here.

With upcoming performances at the ACM Awards and a return to touring, Lambert remains a formidable presence in the country music landscape, promising more anthems that resonate with audiences seeking truth and catharsis. Lambert says, “I am so proud to sing this song. It feels like it could have been on the same record as Gunpowder & Lead in a lot of ways. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned is a pretty powerful statement, and the way it’s written, you can tell we’re not kidding.

“Country music, at its core, tells the truth about life, but it makes you feel something. Sometimes, you laugh. Sometimes, you throw your fist in the air. Sometimes, that fist goes through the wall. All I know is I’ve got a lot more to say and a lot more music coming soon. So, for anyone who’s ever seen themselves in one of my songs, especially the rowdy ones, get ready! We wanted to come up with something that really says something from the start. And there’s a whole lot of feelings and rhythms and great playing to come.”

Lambert’s upcoming appearances at the ACM Awards and Whitewater Amphitheater, alongside a packed summer tour schedule, underscore her enduring influence and commitment to connecting with fans through her music.
