Country music sensation Miranda Lambert is set to take the stage at AutoZone Park in Memphis on May 24. Originally scheduled for September 2024, the concert was postponed due to Hurricane Helene’s impact.
This performance is part of the “Music on the Diamond” series, a nationwide initiative that highlights top artists performing in iconic Minor League ballparks. Lambert’s show will mark the first full-scale concert at AutoZone Park since 2013, when Bob Dylan last headlined there. A venue that has welcomed nearly 13 million fans since its opening in 2000, AutoZone Park aims to become a year-round entertainment hub under the guidance of the Memphis Redbirds organization.
Miranda Lambert has made a significant mark in country music over her two-decade career. She first gained recognition as a contestant on “Nashville Star” and released her debut album “Kerosene” in 2004. As of 2024, she has become the most awarded artist in Academy of Country Music history, boasting an impressive collection of accolades, including a Grammy Award and multiple Country Music Association awards.
This concert is particularly special as it comes on the heels of Lambert’s latest album, “Postcards from Texas,” which she co-produced and considers a love letter to her home state. In addition to her music, Lambert is a successful entrepreneur with ventures ranging from writing to owning a restaurant and launching a clothing line.
The May 24 concert will also feature performances from Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives. Tickets, which have been in high demand, are still available for purchase on Ticketmaster, priced between $41 and $179. Fans who originally held tickets for the postponed date will have their tickets honored.
Overall, this concert is an exciting opportunity for Memphis residents and tourists alike to experience live music in a unique setting, reinforcing the notion that even in uncertain times, the spirit of live entertainment thrives.
