During an intimate January 24 performance at Joe’s Bar in Chicago, Miranda Lambert told fans she began “drinking a little extra” after her 2015 divorce from fellow country crooner Blake Shelton. The “Vice” singer also noted that it became the inspiration for several songs.
“I found myself in Midtown in Nashville three nights in a row at like last call and with the lights coming on, and I’m still sitting there,” she told the audience about the inspiration behind “Ugly Lights” from her latest album. “So I wrote a song about it.”
Lambert is currently dating musician Anderson East and preparing for her Highway Vagabond tour.
