At the 2025 CMA Awards, country music took a funky turn as Chris Stapleton and Miranda Lambert performed their collaborative track,“A Song to Sing.”This lively duet brings a disco twist to their country roots, complete with matching burgundy suits and beige hats, all performed under a dazzling disco ball. It’s a scene reminiscent of a glitzy dance party, proving that country can groove too!
The song, released in July, pays homage to classic duets, echoing the timeless collaborations of Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton. Lambert has spoken to the song’s emotional depth, sharing that both she and Stapleton tapped into their personal experiences in crafting the lyrics. This year, Lambert is making history with her 18th nomination for Female Vocalist of the Year, while Stapleton aims for yet another win in the Male Vocalist category.
Besides the duo’s electrifying performance, the night featured an impressive lineup, including Ella Langley, Kelsea Ballerini, and Luke Combs, with Lainey Wilson hosting the event. The evening celebrates not just the music but the creativity and camaraderie within the industry. If this is the new direction for country music, fans better be ready to hit the dance floor!
