When Miranda Lambert announced she was releasing a duet with Maren Morris, "Way Too Pretty for Prison," she revealed she was inspired to write the story after an evening with Little Big Town's Karen Fairchild. But when Lambert was introducing songs from her upcoming Wildcard album at a recent media event, the singer recalled the personal story that led to one of the most talked about songs on her next set of tunes.
"I went on tour last year with Little Big Town for the Bandwagon tour and it was so awesome," Lambert said from stage, recalling their joint The Bandwagon Tour. "I love them. It's one of my favorite bands of all time actually. But Karen Fairchild came over. I told some of you all this, but I'll tell you again. She came over to talk about the tour. We were going to have 17 people on stage because we alone have a 10-piece band with no horns. So, including those we have 15. At capacity. With our band and their band together we're trying to figure out how we're going to navigate that and make it awesome without everybody just playing over each other and all that stuff.
