Someone at their Mansfield, Massachusetts show captured their cover on camera and thank goodness they did. Little Big Town is known for their spine-tingling harmonies, but when they added Lambert to the mix, the song was elevated to another level of greatness.
They kicked off the a cappella part of the R&B song in five-part harmonies, which is no easy feat. From the audience’s reaction, they were loving every second of it, and so were we!
The award-winning band and the “We Should Be Friends” singer transitioned seamlessly into Dixie Chicks’ hit “Goodbye Earl.” Watch their insane harmonies during “Killing Me Softly” below.
