Miranda Lambert, Jack Ingram, Jon Randall Raise a Glass to ‘Tequila Does’ at CMT Awards

Miranda Lambert, Jack Ingram and Jon Randall took to the elements for an acoustic performance of “Tequila Does” at the 2021 CMT Awards.

Trading the glitz and glam for a natural setting, the trio honored the spirit of their collaborative album The Marfa Tapes by gathering around a campfire at a rural cabin set adorned with string lights. Lambert’s voice shone alongside gentle harmonies from Ingram and Randall in the musical tribute to her beverage of choice that stands as a fan favorite off the collaborative project. “‘Cause he don’t love me like tequila does / Nobody can / He don’t give me that border town buzz / Like tequila does,” Lambert sang, decked out in western wear and a smile on her face all the while. “That was awesome,” CMT Awards co-host Kane Brown praised at performance end. “Nothing beats a good campfire session.”

Miranda Lambert is the most nominated act at the 2021 CMT Awards earning four overall. She recently debuted her collaboration album The Marfa Tapes, which was written and recorded with Ingram and Randall in Marfa, Texas. The Texas native also opened up the first-female branded bar and restaurant on Nashville’s Broadway, Casa Rosa.

Other performances from country music’s only fan-voted awards show include Chris Stapleton, Carrie Underwood, Kane Brown, Lauren Alaina and more.
