AUSTIN, Texas (CelebrityAccess) – Country star Miranda Lambert gave fans a sneak peek of her upcoming album on Friday with a surprise performance at legendary Stubb’s BBQ in Austin.
According to Miranda Lambert’s publicist, the show was only advertised on a marquee outside the venue, and Miranda Lambert’s announcement at 6 p.m. surprised fans and the concert venue was sold out by noon.
Lambert’s concert comes nearly two decades to the day she made her debut on the venue’s stage on August 28, 2024.
“I have a brand new album, and I’m as passionate as I was at that show 20 years ago,” said the singer, who Esquire called “consistent but unpredictable” and Rolling Stone called “the country’s most ambitious.” The woman who is a vigorous artist said this. From the stage, plus the background, “I love honky-tonks. That’s how I grew up. It’s in my DNA.”
The album, which will be available for retail and streaming via Republic Records on September 13, pays homage to Lambert’s home state of Texas.
