AceShowbiz - Miranda Lambert has teamed up once again with her longtime collaborator, Trey Fanjoy, to direct the powerful visual for her latest single "Wranglers". As the first single from her forthcoming album, "Wranglers" is a bold announcement. The video features Lambert and her friends rallying around a heartbroken companion, providing not just support but also a bit of fiery revenge, literally.
The storyline unfolds with Lambert and her pals holding a ceremonial bonfire of the ex's belongings, echoing the gritty thematic essence of her 2005 breakout hit, "Kerosene". True to form, Lambert uses a replica of the original kerosene can and the exact book of matches from the "Kerosene" video, blending nostalgia with a modern tale of empowerment.
Lambert herself describes "Wranglers" as "a classic tale of a woman taking her power back." She adds, "I think we can all identify with the character in this video, because we have all had a time in our life where we needed to find our strength and also get a little revenge on someone who did us wrong or hurt us."
The video, filmed outside Austin, Texas, showcases the sense of freedom that comes with shedding old baggage. The visual also features Lambert's childhood friend, Laci, and actress Elle Lamont, further grounding the work in personal history and friendship. Additionally, Jessica Stroup and Christopher Backus play the roles of key characters in this vengeful saga.
With "Wranglers", Miranda Lambert digs into her roots to deliver a compelling narrative of heartbreak and resilience. As fans eagerly await her forthcoming album, this new single has set an electrifying tone, bridging her past and present in a way that only Lambert can.
