Miranda Lambert invited People to her newly kicked off The Bandwagon Tour, which opened this past weekend in Texas with her tourmates Little Big Town.

Miranda told People, "This is The Bandwagon Tour Part 2! We had so much fun on The Bandwagon Tour in 2018; we wanted to bring the party back. Every night on The Bandwagon Tour, I get to do an encore with Little Big Town. We do my songs, their songs, and a few of our favorite covers."

She added, "There's been so much energy in the crowds each night on this tour. It's been cool to see people singing to the brand new songs, too!"

Lambert even took some time to honor Naomi Judd, who died on April 30, 2022. She offered, "We also took a moment in Dallas to pay tribute to the legendary Naomi Judd. I'm thankful I got to spend a little time with her at the CMT Awards recently. She was a true icon and will be so very missed."
