This weekend Miranda Lambert’s “Velvet Rodeo” will begin as her Las Vegas residency kicks off. The singer describes the experience as “femininity intertwined with a circus.”
The term “velvet rodeo” is used in the first song, “Acting Up,” from her recent Palomino album.
“I wanted something a little soft and feminine for Vegas, which is velvet,” explains Lambert. “ And then, obviously, a rodeo — I mean, I joined the circus for a living. That’s what I do,” she adds with a laugh.
Lambert’s Vegas residency runs until October 8th at Planet Hollywood.
