The country singer’s 10th studio album, ‘Postcards from Texas,’ is due out Sept. 13.
Miranda Lambert, who turned 40 this year, is the most-lauded country singer-songwriter to come out of Texas in decades. She’s taken home 39 trophies from the Academy of Country Music Awards — the most in ACM history. Later this month, she’ll receive the Country Icon Award at the People’s Choice Country Awards.
Not bad for a self-described teen fashion dork who used to hang out at Adair’s Saloon in Deep Ellum with her mom, dreaming of the big time.refers to the album’s recording location — the famed Arlyn Studios in Austin — as well as Lambert’s deep roots in Texas. She lived in Van Alstyne, north of Dallas, until first grade, when her family moved to Lindale.
“No Man’s Land” is about a woman who doesn’t care about society’s rules and a man who struggles with her strong personality. What can you tell me about that song? Brendan is a retired NYPD officer, so songwriting is not his thing. It’s mine. But for fun, during the COVID lockdown, we would write some songs, and I realized he’s pretty good. I mean, he was a cop. He’s seen a lot of life, too. Jon Randall and I were just sitting at the house, having some tequila, talking about the album’s direction, and Brendan kept kind of popping in, so we all three started writing it.
I followed him around all these places and watched his shows, and he had this electricity, this stage presence that was so commanding and so rock ‘n’ roll. But he also had these well-crafted songs. So he had it all, and that’s kind of what I wanted to chase. He was just such an early influence for me, and he took me under his wing. He was just so sweet and encouraging.
