Miranda Lambert plans to unveil her first Republic Records album, Postcards from Texas, on Sept. 13. She shares latest track “Alimony” today (July 24), officially setting the tone for the Lone Star State-inspired album.
Relocating to Austin’s Arlyn Recording Studios, the acclaimed artist united with fellow Texan and Grammy winner Jon Randall to produce the 14-track collection of ballads, rockers, acoustic numbers and steel guitar-soaked tunes. Drawing from Lambert’s childhood, “Alimony” aims to take fans to the dance floor.
Laughing, she notes, “My parents were private investigators in Dallas, Texas who worked a ton of divorce cases in highfalutin parts of town, so this wasn’t hard to write. I’d heard about it my whole life.”

Lambert penned the new song, as well as the unreleased “Looking Back on Luckenbach,” alongside Shane McAnally and Natalie Hemby.
“We were out in my barn; I was showing Shane and Natalie the horses, and I asked if he had any other titles,” she recalls. “He said he had one, and I was like, ‘What is it? Because your last one was ‘Looking Back on Luckenbach,’ which I didn’t think you could top. He said, ‘Well, ‘If you’re gonna leave me in San Antone, remember the Alamo-neeeee…’’ Natalie and I were like, ‘Alright, Shane! Stop showing off.’
“We went back to the house and got the guitars,” Lambert continues, “and I specifically was like, ‘I want a shuffle, man.’ I love to shuffle so much, and this record needed a shuffle! I knew I wanted one in my set, because I haven’t done one in a while—and everybody loves a shuffle.”
She and Randall rounded up electric guitarists Jedd Hughes and Ethan Ballinger, keyboardist Bukka Allen, bassist Rachel Loy and drummer Conrad Choucroun to help bring the track to life.
Now available for preorder, Postcards from Texas also features previously-released singles “Wranglers” and “Dammit Randy” as well as a collaboration with Parker McCollum and more.
