Four the Record: Miranda Lambert 4th album due out in Nov.

It’s amazing that a singer as talented as Miranda Lambert still sings traditional country, with a bit of rock and blues mixed in. Her upcoming fourth studio album “Four the Record” contains 14 songs including the lead single "Baggage Claim", wonderful guitar work, deeper lyrics, more thoughtful and her voice has grown in array and it shows, simply astonishing in this track. It is one more example of how modern country music can also be listenable and traditional, without dropping into the trap of pandering to pop and folk listeners. With both Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood, their music, though surely excellent, are quite far detached from what country music in fact strives to be, a sad drift that Shania Twain appeared to establish.

Like many of Miranda Lambert fans, I first discovered her on Nashville Star. Although I saw quite a few episodes of that show, I was amazed with her voice and songwriting skills, particularly when I heard her original single, "Greyhound Bound for Nowhere." It has more of a traditional formation and her wording and presentation are refreshing. She also has something that can either assist or holdback her career. She’s gorgeous, that's not destined to be disparaging in any way. The difficulty with being gorgeous in Country music lately is that regardless of how serious your songwriting is, you'll always be appraised to style over substance. For sure Nashville won't lump Lambert into this group.

Miranda Lambert’s FOUR THE RECORD is scheduled for release on November 1, 2011 through RCA Nashville records.
