American Songwriter - Miranda's Old Fashion Evolution
Thursday, May 13, 2010
American Songwriter covers Miranda, Blake Shelton and Merle Haggard in this month's issue. On stands now!
Just before noon on the opening day of her “Roadside Bars & Pink Guitars Tour,” Miranda Lambert takes a few minutes to talk about albums, why they matter and whether they’ll still be around.
“I’m interested in these things,” she says, as her dogs, Delilah and Delta, yip. She doesn’t have the answer as to the future of recorded music, but adds, “All I know is that I like full albums, whether it has six songs or 20 on it.”
She and her boyfriend, Blake Shelton, have demonstrated both ends of this spectrum. Shelton (see accompanying story) is wagering on his Hillbilly Bone Six Pak, the first of a planned series of six-song, less-expensive albums that are to be released frequently enough to keep pumping out a fresh hit and fresh material. Lambert is doing it the old-fashioned way. Her most recent album is the hot-mixed and heralded Revolution, a 15-song album.
