The Weight of These Wings

The Weight of These Wings is a 2016 double album by Miranda Lambert that blends contemporary country, country pop, alternative country and Americana. The songs range from stripped acoustic ballads to rock-leaning, electric guitar-driven tracks, with roots instruments such as pedal steel and twangy guitar supporting Lambert's raw, expressive vocals. Lyrically the album centers on personal themes of heartbreak, recovery and self-reflection, delivered through narrative songwriting and intimate moments that emphasize emotional directness and a roots-oriented sonic palette.
