Miranda Lambert Signs With Republic Records, Teases New Single
The country star’s new single, ‘Wranglers,’ is out May 3.
Miranda Lambert, having just wrapped her twice-extended, 48-show Velvet Rodeo residency in Las Vegas, has signed with Republic Records.
The most awarded artist in Academy of Country Music history—including their top Entertainer of the Year honor—will also be supported by the Nashville-based Big Loud, including Country Radio promotion as well as other marketing efforts.
The announcement signals Lambert’s first new solo music since 2022’s critically acclaimed, GRAMMY-, ACM- and Country Music Association-nominated Palomino. “Wranglers,” arriving May 3, is her first track under the new deal.
The news arrives ahead of a highly anticipated appearance at the Stagecoach Festival this Saturday, April 27. Fans worldwide can join the excitement by tuning into the Amazon Music livestream of the seven-time CMA Female Vocalist and five-time ACM Album of the Year winner’s set. Fans can also listen to her full set on SiriusXM’s “The Highway.”
For Lambert, this marks a significant time to be a woman in music. As she said of her first Republic track, “‘Wranglers’ is a tale of a woman taking her power back. I think we can all identify with the character in this song, because we have all had a time in our life that we needed to find a way to find our strength and also get a little revenge on someone that did us wrong or hurt us.”
She continued about her new label, “Music is and always will be the thing that drives me, but having a new home has given me a hunger I didn’t realize I still had inside me. This song feels like it could be on the same record as ‘Gunpowder & Lead’; it has that same fury. I can’t wait to get out there with this new label and this new music… Monte Lipman and his team fire me up!”
“Miranda Lambert’s legacy as both a consummate storyteller and legendary performer speaks for itself. Her new music is spectacular and we are thrilled and honored to welcome her to Republic Records in partnership with Big Loud,” said Republic Founder and Chairman, Monte Lipman.
