“Since I was 19-years-old, Sony has been my home in Nashville,”
her post began.
“Over the last 20 years together we have released albums that allowed me to share my story with the world, and we’ve reached heights I’d never even dreamed were possible.”
Lambert went on to thank the team at Sony for allowing her to chase her dreams for so many years.
“I’m so thankful for our time together and everything they made possible for me, yet I wouldn’t be true to myself if I wasn’t constantly looking for the next challenge and a new way to stretch my creativity,” she continued.
“With that in mind, I’ve decided to say goodbye to my Sony family. I can’t wait to see what the next adventure holds.”
The Texas native made the announcement alongside a graphic that included all nine of her studio albums released under the Sony Music Nashville imprint. Those albums include the following:
Kerosene (2005)
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (2007)
Revolution (2009)
Four The Record (2011)
Platinum (2014)
The Weight Of These Wings (2016)
Wildcard (2019)
The Marfa Tapes (2021)
Palomino (2022)
Lambert’s latest album, Palomino, arrived to rave reviews in April of 2022. The project produced hits such as “If I Was A Cowboy,” and “Strange,” and also includes fan-favorite tracks like “Actin’ Up” and “Geraldene.”
During her time at Sony, Miranda Lambert rose to the top of the game and earned seven No. 1 solo albums, 10 No. 1 hit radio singles, and more than 70 prestigious awards. She is a three-time GRAMMY winner and is the most-awarded artist in the history of the Academy of Country Music with a total of 37 career ACM Awards.
Lambert is also a 14-time CMA Awards winner.
Miranda Lambert is currently celebrating nearly two decades as a country music superstar with a career-spanning set list in Sin City with her Velvet Rodeo Las Vegas Residency.
The 39-year-old hitmaker recently told Garden & Gun that she has been enjoying her time in Las Vegas as it’s giving her a break from the grueling day-to-day tour life.
“After twenty years of touring, it gets exhausting sometimes. That is one reason I’m so thankful for the Velvet Rodeo shows,” she shared with Garden & Gun.
«It is a break from the road, but I still get to do what I love and connect with the fans. This show was so fun to put together because we can bring in some production elements [like pyrotechnics] we haven’t ever had on the road. I won’t be touring much while I’m doing the residency except for a few festivals here and there, so y’all gotta come to Sin City!”
Lambert’s show is a 90-minute celebration of her artistry that features tunes from her entire discography from her debut album, Kerosene, to her current project, Palomino.
The “If I Was A Cowboy” singer’s residency kicked off on September 23, 2022 and is currently set to run through December of this year.
