Miranda Lambert Reveals Ella Langley As Mystery Duet Partner: 'She And I Are Kindred Spirits'

Miranda Lambert finally revealed her mystery duet partner after stirring anticipation with teasers on social media.

Lambert joined forces with Ella Langley on "Snakeskin Boots," she confirmed on Wednesday morning (September 23). The pair will deliver a "cinematic, retro-Western track," which opens Lambert's soon-to-debut studio record, Crisco. Teaming up on "Snakeskin Boots" is the latest personal and professional connection between Langley and Lambert. The two artists worked together on Langley's sophomore studio album, Dandelion, which included her record-shattering single, "Choosin' Texas."

"We wrote 'Snakeskin Boots' with Ella in mind. She and I are kindred spirits, and when we were working on her album, I realized how many retro influences we share," Lambert said in a statement. "To me, this song is kind of Thelma and Louise if they didn't drive off the cliff. It's two bada** women getting away with something, and she's the perfect partner for that."

"Snakeskin Boots" tells "a larger-than-life story of a woman who knows exactly how to make her escape," the release states. Lambert and co-producer Jesse Frasure brought the story to life with "inspiration from the era's [late '60s] dramatic, stylized soundscapes… Across 12 tracks, Lambert celebrates the many worlds that have always existed within country music as it nods to the genre's shared history with disco music. She explores heartbreak and hope, highways and honky-tonks, rhinestones and roller skates, creating a record that feels both timeless and refreshingly alive while embracing every side of the artist fans have come to love: the storyteller, the wanderer, the romantic, the troublemaker, the traditionalist and the dreamer."

"I've always loved every corner of country music," Lambert previously said in a statement. "The heartbreak songs, the honky-tonk songs, the songs that make you think and the songs that make you dance. Making this record reminded me that those things don't have to be separated. We followed the songs wherever they wanted to go, trusted our instincts and ended up with something that feels really fun and really honest to who I am."

So far, Lambert has released the title track, "Two Things Can Be True," "Till The Going's Gone," "A Song To Sing" with Chris Stapleton, and "Sunset Marquis" from the upcoming album. Crisco will arrive on Friday, October 2.
