Since Grammy® Award-winner Miranda Lambert debuted “Roots and Wings” – a song Lambert wrote especially for the Ram Truck brand and the cornerstone of a Ram Truck marketing initiative – there has been much fan excitement and interest in the song. So much so, that Lambert decided to create a long-form commercial featuring additional verses of the song never heard before.
“I’ve seen so many positive reactions to the song and the partnership with Ram,” said Miranda Lambert. “The song is just so special and personal to me, and it is so amazing what the Ram team did to bring it to life, that I want my fans to see it too.”
Lambert said that “Roots and Wings” was a personal song about where she came from and where she is going. The full-length video creatively tells her story through live action video combined with illustrations, animation and vintage styling. The still photos featured in the piece were hand picked from Lambert’s family photo album.
A shorter version of the “Roots and Wings” song debuted earlier this year in a new Ram Truck brand marketing campaign featuring Lambert. The campaign included television, print, digital and social media elements. A 60-second version of the song also played in concert venues during Lambert’s “Certified Platinum Tour,” which ended last month.
