Country music has long been a male dominated industry, but recently a number of power house females have been stealing some of the boy's thunder. There are the obvious names that come to mind, like Carrie, Taylor, and Reba, but the woman with the #1 country song in the U.S. is a little more low key.
I'm talking about Miranda Lambert. Her single "The House That Built Me" is sitting comfy at the top of the country charts and has been for weeks now. Lambert was a finalist on the 2003 season of Nashville Star, but has cemented herself as a critically acclaimed songwriter and musician, accumulating 10 top 40 country singles and 3 #1 country albums.
She has displays a great dichotomy in her songwriting, switching from tough-as-nails-boy-hater tunes to a much more softer side, which is very evident on "The House That Built Me.
Take a listen to "The House That Built Me" now!
