Vanner Records/RCA Records Nashville GRAMMY Award-winner Miranda Lambert's critically acclaimed and award winning song "Vice" is now certified PLATINUM by the RIAA.
The newly PLATINUM song, "Vice," that received GRAMMY and ACM nods for Best Country Solo Performance and Best Country Song as well as SINGLE OF THE YEAR, SONG OF THE YEAR (artist and songwriter), and VIDEO OF THE YEAR respectively was co-written by Lambert along with fellow GRAMMY Award-winning songwriters Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne.
