As far as strong woman role models go, you can’t get any better than Miranda Lambert. Miranda has made her mark on country music history with music like her song “Tin Man,” and is an example of following your dreams, and doing things your own way…a lesson she may have learned from women she looked up to. While they might not have directly been musical influences, Miranda shares who she admired, “I loved from Patti Loveless to Faith (Hill), Shania (Twain), Sara Evans. Then also the pop side, you know, Beyoncé, Destiny’s Child. I was loving people that had something different, that did something a little bit different. When Faith did the pop album, the Cry record, I just thought it was great. Her singing was cool, it was something different, something I had never heard from little country Faith Hill and Shania obviously wrote all kinds of records and barriers with her music. Those aren’t necessarily my musical influences of course, but they’re influences to me as far as what they did later on in their careers versus when they started.” Miranda continues to cut her own path through the world, and she creates music that touches her fans in special ways.
