Miranda Lambert

Bridges' impressive range sets the tender ballad apart from anything in county music.

Lambert is a co-writer on 'Thought You Should Know,' and it's her first No. 1 as a songwriter for another artist.

A huge roster of stars have joined the bill for the 2023 CMA Fest, which marks the festival's 50th anniversary.

This isn't Bridges first country music collaboration.

The event has evolved into a must-see for fans.

"You can't just live in [your] small-town little Baptist bubble. That's not reality," Lambert says.

Lambert and her husband Brendan McLoughlin had very different upbringings: She's from small-town Texas, while he's a native New Yorker.

After co-writing Wallen's No. 1 hit, 'Thought You Should Know,' Lambert says she was 'proud' to tell his mom's story.

Whether they're sad, spooky or just make you think, these country music videos will give you chills.

"She only misses Harlem when she hears the carousel," Lambert sings.
