Last year, McEntire premiered her single “I Can’t” at the ACM Awards and took the stage with Lambert at 2024’s Stagecoach. “I’d love to tour with Miranda. I love her sassiness and her fun energy and I love her music, so you bet — that’d be a great tour,” she told Variety.

The first time Reba McEntire heard "Trailblazer," she cried. So did Lainey Wilson and Miranda Lambert as they wrote it. The star trio are debuting the emotional, mid-tempo ballad about thanking those who came before them — and lifting up those who come after — at the ACM Awards tomorrow (May 8).

Lainey Wilson and Miranda Lambert say they wrote a new song called “Trailblazer” hoping Reba McEntire would join them. The country music icon says she never even considered saying no. Billboard spoke with all three women about how the song came together and the direction of the lyrics.
