Miranda Lambert released the first single from her collaborative album ‘The Marfa Tapes’ with Jack Ingram and Jon Randall on Friday. The acoustic ‘In His Arms’ teleports the listener to a campfire scene where outlaws are shooting the breeze about lost love. The production is so natural, it makes it seem like it was actually recorded outdoors beside a tent. Lambert evokes such emotion when she sings, you believe that the happily married superstar actually wishes she were with someone else. Ingram provides nice harmonies, but make no mistake, this is Lambert’s song through and through. I wouldn’t miss Ingram’s vocals for a second if they weren’t there. This is a very strong start to what will hopefully be a stellar album. To listen to ‘In His Arms’, click here.
