Miranda Lambert won big at this year’s Academy of Country Music Awards. The singer was a three time winner, claiming her first Top Female Vocalist of the Year trophy, as well as first Video of the Year for her chart-topping “White Liar.”  But it was her Album of the Year win for Revolution that earned Lambert a place in ACM history as the first solo female ever to win Album twice – a feat made all the more impressive because she accomplished it with two consecutive albums.  Her sophomore album Crazy Ex-Girlfriend won Album of The Year in 2008.  
 
Beyond the ACM recognition for Album of the Year, Revolution has received perfect reviews from countless publications including 4 stars from Rolling Stone and USA Today, an ‘A’ from Entertainment Weeklyand exuberant praise from SPIN, NY Times, Washington Post and more.
