Miranda Lambert Biography
Miranda Lambert was born Nov. 10, 1983, and is a native of Lindale, Texas. Her father Rick is a country guitarist and songwriter who gathered friends and neighbors often to his rural home. During the week, he and Miranda's mother Bev run a detective agency. But country music is the heart of the household on weekends, with the young Lambert raised on the songs of Guy Clark, Jerry Jeff Walker, Merle Haggard and her dad.
After seeing Garth Brooks play in Dallas when she was 10, she entered her first country talent contest, singing Holly Dunn's "Daddy's Hands," with her father accompanying her on guitar. Miranda Lambert made her public debut singing Holly Dunn's hit "Daddy's Hands." Her bedroom was soon decorated with country-star photos. She began annually attending Nashville's Fan Fair festivities at age 13 and was soon an avid autograph collector. At age 14, Rick bought her a guitar, but to his surprise, she expressed no interest in it. That would soon change.
Lambert was 16 when she heard of the Tru-Value country talent contest. She entered and placed well in the Texas competition. She began appearing on the Johnny High Country Music Review in Arlington, near Fort Worth, the same show that helped launch LeAnn Rimes. She attended a music-business seminar in Nashville, which led to a "demo" recording session. But she hated the four pop-country songs chosen for her. When she returned to Texas, she asked her father to teach her the guitar, so she could write her own songs.
She was inspired by the examples of singer-songwriters like Jack Ingram, Allison Moorer, Guy Clark and Emmylou Harris. Seeing how passionate their daughter was about music, Rick and Bev Lambert gave her their full support. Bev began researching talent contests. One in Dallas led to a contract with an agency that got her a small part in a Ruffles potato chip ad and work in the 2001 teen comedy movie Slap Her She's French. In Nashville, she placed second out of 400 who competed for the role of Tammy Wynette in the musical Stand by Your Man.
