“I got to play on the Grammys last year, and I got to take one home, and I was just so thankful,” she added. “I’m grateful for what I already have.”

Miranda Lambert’s much-anticipated new album, Palomino, arrives on Friday, April 29. The project includes 15 tracks and “explores the world and the people in it, seeking beauty and adventure all around.”
