Miranda Lambert Released A Brand-New Single On May 3

Miranda Lambert hit the stage at the 2024 ACM Awards to deliver a red-hot performance of her brand-new single, “Wranglers.”

Lambert released “Wranglers” on May 3. The song is her first release with her new record label, Republic Records.

She shared the meaning behind the powerful anthem, saying:

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…This offers such a cool, raging take on how something like this unravels.”
