Miranda Lambert drops hints about an unreleased song; here’s everything we know so far

Miranda Lambert is preparing a new single for her upcoming tenth studio album, due out in late 2024. A month earlier, the country singer released her first single, Wranglers, from the album, which brought back memories of Lambert’s early music.

Now, the three-time Grammy winner could potentially announce her next single by sharing social media posts and clips about an unreleased song. Lambert also penned a short note about the context of the song in one of her recent posts.

Miranda Lambert gives a taste of unreleased song for new album

Miranda Lambert, 40, isn’t letting the excitement surrounding her upcoming tenth studio album die down. After teasing snippets of her first single, Wranglers, for days before its release in early May, the country singer seems to be following the same pattern with her next album.

The ACM-winning singer has already dropped hints about an unreleased song three times on TikTok and Instagram. Lambert shared a small note about the song, titled Dammit Randy, in her June 22 post, saying that the song is for people trying to move on in life. “Unreleased song for anyone who needs to move on from an unsupportive situation…” she wrote in the caption.

Lambert’s recent social media posts featured a 26-second audio clip whose lyrics exactly matched the Somethin’ Bad singer’s message about the song’s context. “Yeah, now that I made it to the other side/ I hope you’re counting the singles in your duplex…/ You gave up until the very last minute/ Now that I’m gone, I have your attention,” the lyrics can be heard.

The singer announced the song’s official release date this week via Instagram with a short clip of the studio recording. Dammit Randy is set to drop on Friday, June 28. She also shared the official cover art of her new single, which features Lambert in a beige and blue cowboy jacket looking out a window with broken glass.

The upcoming album follows Lambert’s 2022 album Palomino. However, according to sources, the melodies of her new singles seem to be reminiscent of her early music, such as Kerosene (2005) and Revolution (2009).

This project is set to be released in 2024 and will be the Texas country star’s first album since signing with Republic Records and Big Loud, according to US Weekly.

Miranda Lambert’s new album feels authentic

Lambert, who was once married to country icon Blake Shelton, spoke openly about the inspiration behind her upcoming album. She called it a “time capsule” of all the music that has inspired her throughout her life and said, “It’s honkey tonk as hell.” But most of all, Lambert said the album is “one of the most ‘me’ records” she’s ever made.

It is safe to say that it is a good time for country music as the genre is now embraced by the majority.

Speaking about her partnership with Republic Records and Big Loud in Nashville, Lambert found the venture to be a whole new inspiration for her, revealing that the labels were “interested” and eager to hear what else the singer had to say with her music.

The If I Was A Cowboy musician added: “I always just wanted to write songs that move people and then go out into the world and play them, you know? It’s as simple as that for me.”

Later, Lambert spoke about the need to relax and create a work-life balance, as the nature of her career requires a tremendous amount of energy.
