Jack Ingram, Miranda Lambert, and Jon Randall will offer an insight into the creative process behind their anticipated, upcoming album The Marfa Tapes in a full-length film premiering Saturday, May 8 (7:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. CT) on Facebook.
Miranda Lambert, Jack Ingram and Jon Randall have announced the release of a documentary film telling the story behind their new album ‘The Marfa Tapes.’ The film will be available to view for 24 hours via Destination Country and Miranda Lambert’s official Facebook page – directed by Spencer Peeples and featuring live performances set against the West Texas backdrop, candid interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage. For the release, Destination Country have teamed up with the trio to premiere the track on Facebook.
The Marfa Tapes arrives May 7 via Vanner Records/RCA Nashville (pre-order/pre-save here). Anticipation continues to grow for the album, which Entertainment Weekly proclaims “both familiar and new in equal measure, and one of the most inspired projects Lambert has ever released.” The trio recently performed the debut release, “In His Arms,” on the “56th ACM Awards.” Watch here.
The trio recorded much of the album outdoors, inviting the ambient sounds of the desert to seep into their live, bare bones performances, and the atmosphere is utterly transportive. While a couple of the tracks may already be familiar to listeners – “Tin Man” as well as fan favorite “Tequila Does” – the vast majority of these songs have never been heard outside of Marfa. The result is a candid, unvarnished look at Lambert, Randall, and Ingram’s undeniable chemistry in its purest, most honest form.
