Miranda Lambert performed the fan-favorite track “Geraldene,” penned by Lambert, Jon Randall and Jack Ingram, at the 56th Annual CMA Awards at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. With a tambourine in hand, Lambert, who was nominated for Entertainer of the Year, gave a fiery performance with actual sparks flying behind her set in addition to an eye-catching array of neon lights.
Fans have been very vocal about wanting the track to be Lambert’s next single, as it has earned ample praise ever since the track’s release on the Texas native’s newest record, Palomino.
“It’s crazy to think that I’ve been coming to the CMA’s for like, seventeen consecutive years now, maybe eighteen. I’m always excited – it’s like a reunion for us. You make all these friends being in the business for so long and you don’t see each other ‘cause we’re all running in a hundred directions, but CMA night is the one night we can like reconnect and, you know, it’s special,” Lambert shared in reference to country music’s biggest night.
As always, the superstar showcased her signature southern charm with a side of sass during her performance. Lambert was also nominated for three awards during the coveted awards show, including Entertainer Of The Year, Female Vocalist Of The Year, and Album Of The Year (Palomino).
