Lambert drops "Wranglers" video
The song and video mark her debut with Republic Records with strategic support from Nashville-based Big Loud.
The video was filmed outside Austin, where Lambert recorded the song at Arlyn Recording Studios with producer Jon Randall.
Directed by Lambert's longtime collaborator Trey Fanjoy, the creative force behind nearly all of her music videos, the video features her childhood best friend, Laci, who also appeared in "White Liar," as well as actress Elle Lamont, who previously appeared in "If I Was A Cowboy," plus Jessica Stroup ("90210," "The Following," "Jack Reacher," "Iron Fist") and Christopher Backus ("Big Little Lies," "Mindhunter," "Jett").
As Lambert sets fire to a paramour's Wranglers while donning her own Idyllwind Denim, the gas can used to fuel the flames is a replica of her first kerosene can and the matchbook is the exact one used in that original shoot of her song "Kerosene" nearly two decades ago.
The song was written by Audra Mae, Evan McKeever and Ryan Carpenter based on a conversation between Lambert and .
"'Wranglers' is a classic tale of a woman taking her power back," Lambert said. "I think we can all identify with the character in this video, 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; I am so proud to sing this song."
Lambert is also returning to the road for select engagements this year following the recent conclusion of her Velvet Rodeo Las Vegas residency.

CD reviews for Miranda Lambert
Cynics might think that Miranda Lambert is presumptuous in entitling her fifth disc "Platinum" and, in effect, assuming she'll get her plaque for selling 1 million units. But Lambert says that isn't the case, but more a matter of style, looks and feel.
Lambert also wrote and discovered a lot of excellent songs that fit her quite well in an album in which she exposes her inner self as she matures. That may never more apparent than in the country rocker Lambert wrote ...
Every once in a while an album comes along that restores your faith in mainstream country music. Miranda Lambert's "Revolution" is just such a recording. It's not revolutionary, as the title might suggest. Instead, this CD is chock full of topnotch songs that are both memorable and sincere and never sound slick or overproduced. (Come to think of it, such old school values as these may in fact be revolutionary around Nashville).
Lambert vocalizes a bit like a little girl at ...
Even though it sounds like a cliche from the big book of country songwriting, the truth is that, when the timing's right, a loser can end up being the biggest winner of all. Today's object lesson comes from Miranda Lambert and her sophomore album, the follow-up to her 2005 near-platinum debut, "Kerosene."
Imagine for a moment if the then-19-year-old had actually taken the crown in 2003's Nashville Star and then been forced into the studio within weeks to be primped and ...
