Set to take place on Oct. 1, the full-length set will see Lambert perform songs from her catalog of award-winning hits. She will also play select tracks off of the new album.

A 12-piece string section will perform alongside Lambert for the one-night-only show.

โ€œIt was magical to hear the way strings can transform a song when we were in the studio creating this record, and I canโ€™t wait to bring that to life in an even bigger way with our full setlist,โ€ Lambert said. โ€œWeโ€™ve never gotten to play that way on stage, and to have the opportunity to do it for the first time at the opening of a beautiful new venue right here in Nashville is going to be really special.โ€

Tickets for Miranda Lambert: One Night Only will go on sale Friday, Aug. 21 at 10 a.m. CT.

What to Know About Miranda Lambert’s Crisco

Fans have already heard several tracks from Lambertโ€™s forthcoming, 12-track album.

The title track was among the early releases, as were โ€œTill The Goingโ€™s Goneโ€ and โ€œSunset Marquis.โ€ Lambert also released โ€œA Song To Sing.โ€ The duet with Chris Stapleton takes cues from the likes of Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers.

โ€œItโ€™s, like, all the stuff that Iโ€™ve always loved,โ€ Lambert told Billboard of the track. โ€œIโ€™ve just never explored it as an artist.โ€

As for the album as a whole, Lambert previously noted that sheโ€™s โ€œalways loved every corner of country music.โ€

โ€œThe heartbreak songs, the honky-tonk songs, the songs that make you think and the songs that make you dance,โ€ she said. โ€œMaking this record reminded me that those things donโ€™t have to be separated. We followed the songs wherever they wanted to go, trusted our instincts and ended up with something that feels really fun and really honest to who I am.โ€
