Three generations of musicians took hold of the 2025 ACM Awards stage as Reba McEntire, Miranda Lambert, and Lainey Wilson delivered the debut live performance of their collaboration “Trailblazer.”
The three artists took the stage in matching brown suede and turquoise, with an open road behind them. They harmonized their collaboration perfectly, standing in formation and singing directly to one another.
“Talk about a trailblazer cutting one path at a time Running like a dream chaser/Living on a prayer and a rhyme/You put a flag in the ground to a country sound/To the rhythm of your own highway/Talk about a trailblazer/I’m rolling down the road you paved,” they sang. The record includes shoutouts to Dolly Parton, Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, and Tammy Wynette.
“Trailblazer” was co-written by Wilson and Lambert with Brandy Clark. McEntire produced the record alongside Tony Brown and Steve Marcantonio. The country star’s performance arrives as she hosts the ACMs for the 18th time since 1986.
Last year, McEntire premiered her single “I Can’t” at the ACM Awards and took the stage with Lambert at 2024’s Stagecoach. “I’d love to tour with Miranda. I love her sassiness and her fun energy and I love her music, so you bet — that’d be a great tour,” she told Variety.
Wilson returns to the ACM Awards as a nominee with nods for Entertainer of the Year, Female Artist of the Year, and Artist-Songwriter of the Year. She also scored nominations for Visual Media of the Year and Song of the Year for “4x4xU,” plus Album of the Year for Whirlwind. McEntire has been nominated for 48 career ACM Awards with 16 wins, while Lambert has won 35 ACM Awards out of 75 nominations.
