Powerhouse singers Chris Stapleton and Miranda Lambert have fans of country music in a frenzy with their announcement that they’re teaming up on a new single.
The singers put up a joint post on Instagram with the song’s title, and little else. The post shows a drawing of a heart-shaped disco ball with a retro-1970’s vibe in the colors and letters. The drawing has both artists’ names and the song title, “A Song to Sing.”
And the caption doesn’t give much away either, with Miranda writing, “‘A Song to Sing.’ July 11.”
Both Instagram accounts have a link to pre-save the song on their linktree. You can find that here.
According to a press release, Lambert and Stapleton wrote the song alongside Jesse Frasure and five-time CMA Musician of the Year fiddle player Jenee Fleenor.
The subject-matter is said to be heavily influenced by Chris Stapleton’s real-life love story with his wife and touring partner Morgane Stapleton.
“Chris understands this emotion from the inside out, because he and Morgane have both lived it,” Lambert says in the press release. “To have someone so soulful and willing to go into the heart of the feelings, to share the pull of the road and creative life – and what that means when you love someone with every bit of your being is next level. When we finished it, we both knew we wanted to release it, to share it with everyone.”
Chris Stapleton & Miranda Lambert Have Joined Forces Before
This isn’t the first song Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton have collaborated on.
The old friends wrote Stapleton’s hit “What Am I Gonna Do?” together, and have performed it live.
They also teamed up in 2021 to perform “Maggie’s Song” from Nashville’s famed Bluebird Cafe for the 2021 ACM Awards. The song is a tribute to Stapleton’s dog.
But “A Song to Sing” is the pair’s first single. It’s also Miranda Lambert’s first new music since her 2024 release of “Postcards from Texas.”
Both Miranda Lambert & Chris Stapleton Are Spending the Summer On the Road
Both Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton are spending their summers on the road. And while they’re touring, they’ll be teaming up with other big names in country music.
Miranda Lambert is joining Morgan Wallen at various stops on his “I’m the Problem Tour.”
She recently surprised fans when she joined Wallen on stage to sing a duet of his hit, “Cowgirls.”
A fan captured the song and posted it on TikTok. The song choice was also a shocker, since the duo could have sung Morgan Wallen and Miranda Lambert’s duet, “Thought You Should Know,” which they wrote together.
Meanwhile, Chris Stapleton’s 2025 All-American Roadshow will keep him on the road through the summer and into fall.
The schedule includes several stadium shows with the legendary George Strait.
Stapleton has already performed four shows with Strait and has one more to come at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles July 19.
