Jason Aldean Joins Miranda Lambert On Stage

Jason Aldean shocked fans when he appeared as a surprise guest at Miranda Lambert’s Band Together Texas benefit concert on Sunday (Aug. 17). The crowd went wild as Aldean performed his chart-topping hit “She’s Country.”

The biggest highlight of the night came when Aldean invited Miranda Lambert on stage. Together, they delivered a special duet version of “Amarillo Sky.” The song was the perfect choice for the Texas-themed concert, especially since it mentions a city in the Lone Star State.

Fans quickly compared the moment to 2018, when the two released their duet “Drowns the Whiskey.” Aldean took the lead, while Lambert added stunning harmonies to the chorus, creating an unforgettable performance.

Why Jason Aldean Performed At Band Together Texas

So, why was Jason Aldean part of this emotional night? The answer is simple—timing. Aldean was already in Texas for his Full Throttle Tour 2025, which stopped at the Moody Center in Austin on August 16. Since he was in town, organizers invited him to replace Kelly Clarkson, who had to step away from the show.

Clarkson, a Texas native, was originally scheduled to perform. However, she canceled after the tragic passing of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock. His funeral was held the same day as the benefit concert.
