Lambert first landed on the public’s radar in 2003, when she appeared on the country music singing competition "Nashville Star." She has since become one of the top-selling country music acts today.
The Pistol Annies were formed after friends Lambert (Lone Star Annie) and Ashley Monroe (Hippie Annie) made a midnight call to fellow singer Angaleena Presley (Holler Annie). The group first appeared together at the Academy of Country Music’s “Girls Night Out” special last April. Their first album, "Hell on Heels," was released last August.
No outside food or drinks are allowed into the venue. Lawn chairs, blankets, and umbrellas are allowed, and all performances go on rain or shine.
