In February 2009, Miranda Lambert went into the studio to record her third album, Revolution, which was released on September 29, 2009. Lambert wrote or co-wrote all but four of the album's 15 tracks; the album also includes co-writes from Blake Shelton and Dave Haywood and Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum. An EP, titled Dead Flowers, was released on September 8, 2009. The EP, available exclusively at Best Buy, features "Dead Flowers" and three bonus tracks previously included on limited editions of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
Miranda Lambert debuted her new single, "Dead Flowers", at the 44th annual Academy of Country Music Awards on April 5, 2009. It was released to country radio on May 4, 2009, and was a minor Top 40 hit on the charts. The album's second single, "White Liar", was released on August 17, 2009, and debuted at #50 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. In February 2010, "White Liar" became Lambert's highest-charting single, reaching a peak of #2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. "The House That Built Me," the album's third single, was released on March 8, 2010 and has become her first Number One Single.
In 2009, Miranda Lambert (along with two other singers), became the new face of Cotton Inc.’s revived “The Touch, The Feel of Cotton” campaign. She has appeared in ads to promote cotton, and the website features a free download of the full version of her song, "Fabric of My Life."
On September 24, 2009, Lambert and her band performed all the tracks on Revolution in sequence at the Ryman Auditorium, five days before its scheduled release date.
In promotion of Revolution, Miranda Lambert launched her first headlining tour; Roadside Bars & Pink Guitars kicked off in March 2010 and will include stops in over 22 cities, as well as a performance at the Bonnaroo Music Festival.
