Miranda Lambert Posts Selfie With 2 Artists, Stirs Anticipation For 2024

Miranda Lambert kicked off the year with Ashley Monroe and Stephen Wilson Jr., teaming up to write “the first songs of 2024,” she said as she shared a selfie with her the two singer-songwriters on Monday evening (January 8).

Lambert hailed fellow Pistol Annies artist Monroe — who debuted her latest single, “Over Everything,” in November — an inspiration to her for about two decades. “New friend” Wilson’s album, søn of dad, which released in September, “has lit a fire under my a** since I laid ears on it.” The trio wrote three new songs that day.

“Wrote the first songs of 2024 today with bestie [Ashley Monroe] and new friend [Stephen Wilson Jr.],” Lambert wrote in her caption on Instagram. “I’ve been inspired by Ash and her melodies and heart for 20 years now. And Stephen’s record has lit a fire under my a** since I laid ears on it . Great start to this year I’d say! We got deep in the paint. 3 in a day… but let’s get it while the gettin’s good💕💙🤠”

Lambert, gearing up for her final Velvet Rodeo Las Vegas residency shows this spring, released her latest full-length album in April 2022. Palomino included “Actin’ Up,” “If I Was A Cowboy,” “Strange” and other fan-favorites throughout the 15-track record. Since then, Lambert has also released a live rendition of “Carousel” and “If You Were Mine,” a collaboration with Leon Bridges. See her selfie with Monroe and Wilson here:
