Miranda was inspired by her musician father and he taught her to play the guitar and to write songs. She began writing her own music as a teenager and started a band when she was 17 called “Texas Pride”. Her family was very supportive of her efforts, helping to finance her first recording.

She rose to fame when she won third place on the 2003 season of Nashville Star. This led her to sign a contract with Epic Records and she later made her foray onto the music scene with her first single “Me and Charlie Talking”. Her first album, Kerosene went Platinum in the USA and four of the singles made it to the Top 40 Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. She started to become much better known after the album was released and she went on tour with some of the biggest names in the country music scene including Keith Urban and George Strait.
