  • Miranda Lambert Releases New Album “Postcards From Texas”

  • American country music singer-songwriter Miranda Lambert released her tenth studio album “Postcards From Texas” released on September 13, 2024.


    The album is her first LP in two years since the 2022 album “Palomino” and is the first release under her new label Republic Records.
    The album comprises a 14-track, featuring a guest appearance from American country music singer-songwriter Parker McCollum, produced by Miranda Lambert and Jon Randall.
    She recorded the album in her home state of Texas since she was a teenager for the first time.

    Miranda Lambert said of the album in an interview with Today with Hoda & Jenna, “I was like, 'I really want to make a record that has little pieces of every influence, musically, that I've ever had. So, it's like little snapshots of all the influences over the last two decades of my career. That's why I called it Postcards from Texas. It felt like each [song] was a separate little vignette.”
  • She continued, “I haven't made a record in Texas since I was 18. So, it felt really full circle. I was like 'This is my tenth studio record so I'm going back to the root of where it all started and where it all came from, I felt at home, number one. And it felt easy. I'm a co-producer with my great friend Jon Randall who is also a Texas boy. We just got some really great local musicians and brought a few people from Nashville.”
  • Miranda Lambert told Apple Music, “With turning 40 and [signing to] a new record label, I felt new freedom,” she says. “And with that freedom, all I wanted to do was go home to reset so I could get strong to take on a whole new journey. And so I think this record is a snapshot of more like two decades versus the last two years. There's emotions that I've felt for the last two decades as a woman [and] as an artist in this album. The only thing I haven't done is pick up a high armadillo in my car yet, but I want to.”



    Miranda Lambert explained about some tracks for the album via Apple Music.

    “Armadillo”
    “Aaron Raitiere sent me that, the first song he sent me, and I was in Austria, actually, going down the road, because I played a show in Switzerland and [my husband] Brendan and I went to Austria. And we were driving through the mountains in Austria and I'm putting on my earbuds, and I just turned on Aaron's like, 'Here's one.' And it said, 'I met an armadillo out in Amarillo and he asked me for a ride.' And I was like, 'Okay, yes, 100 percent yes, I'm cutting this.' And I didn't even hear anymore. I handed Brendan an earbud and he was like, 'Yes, 100 percent.' I was like, 'This should be the first song on the record.' Just because it's fun and funny… If you're going to have an album full of songs and there's going to be so much emotion, you've got to make sure you have the fun.”

    “Dammit Randy”
    “I've definitely dragged it out too long in certain situations in my life. And I don't know if that's also, as you go through things in your life and as you get a little bit older, you're like, 'Oh, well, now I've seen what happens if you let it fester.' So you just learn to cut it off.”

    “Wranglers”
    “'Wranglers' is a classic 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 where we needed to find our strength and also get a little revenge on someone who did us wrong or hurt us. I think the songwriters nailed it.
    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.”

    “Run”
    “I think the reason that I love horses and I love Airstreams and I love the [tour] bus is because it is a way to run to something, not necessarily away from something. I think that's why I've always been obsessed with trailers. I don't know if it's growing up on a tour bus or whatever, but I just feel like I can chase my dream but also have a piece of home.”

    “Alimony”
    “Shane [McAnally] walked into the barn, because we did one last push for writing for the record, and I'm like, 'I'm making a record in Texas. I need to shuffle. Dang it, I need a shuffle. I have to.' He was like, 'Well, I got a title.' And I was like, 'What?' And he was like, 'If you're going to leave me in San Antonio, remember the alimony.' And I was like, 'I could literally punch you in the face right now.' Dang it, why didn't I think of that? We got to use all of our little Texas puns, and it was fun.”

    “I Hate Love Songs”
    “It gives me chills, that song. It does. I wrote that in Marfa with [Jon Randall] and Jack [Ingram], and it's older. It's about six or seven years old, I think. That is sitting in the pain.”

    “No Man's Land”
    “I don't think I could have written a song like this till now, because this is one of the newest on the album. Luke Dick had the idea, and I just love him because he gets girls. He's just such a man, but he's such a sensitive guy. He understands the wiring. He's a girl dad, too, so I think that probably helped. We never talked about that, and I want to talk to him about it and celebrate because I love this song so much, but it had to be done and it didn't need to be a 'I'm in no man's land with your finger in the air.' That's not what this is. I want to be in your space. I want you to be in my space... I want you to know that I want you here, but I need to be me. And that's the song. I think we really made sure to get that point across that it's not a warning.”
