Miranda Lambert will be a featured cast member and serve as executive producer of a new scripted country music podcast called Make It Up as We Go. People.com reports that the podcast “follows the story of an aspiring young female songwriter and her pursuits to make a name for herself in the music industry.”
Miranda said, “I built a career telling stories, specifically through music. I was drawn to a new form of storytelling with podcasts, which I have never done before. The main character, played by Scarlett Burke, and her challenges as an aspiring singer/songwriter are ones that I can relate to firsthand, which really captivated my attention.”
Miranda will play herself in the podcast, alongside a star-studded cast that includes Dennis Quaid, Billy Bob Thornton, Bobby Bones, Lindsay Ell and Craig Robinson. The podcast will also feature original music from Miranda, Scarlett, Lindsay and Nicolle Galyon.
Make It Up as We Go will be released through iHeartPodcast Network on October 1st.
