Miranda Lambert and the Taste of Country Festival

Grammy Award-winning country music artist Miranda Lambert first landed on the public’s radar in 2003, appearing on the country music singing competition Nashville Star. Although she didn’t end up winning the competition, her finish as runner-up did not stop her from going on to become one of the most popular female country singers of today. In 2011, Miranda had one of her biggest and busiest years yet. In addition to marrying fellow country singer Blake Shelton, she recorded the debut album for her group, Pistol Annies, as well as her fourth solo album, Four the Record, which debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200 and #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums Chart. With its release, she became the first country artist to have each of her first four albums hit #1 on the Top Country Albums Chart. Some of Miranda’s most popular hits include “Kerosene,” “Famous in a Small Town,” “White Liar,” “Dead Flowers,” “Gunpowder & Lead,” "Mama's Broken Heart," and “The House That Built Me.” For tickets, please visit http://www.waltonartscenter.org/calendar/view.aspx?id=7884
