Country music fans have been buzzing since Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton announced earlier this month that they'd be teaming up together for a duet, and over the weekend, some lucky fans got a chance to hear them sing it live together in a surprise performance.

Chris Stapleton and fellow country music great George Strait performed together Saturday night at SoFi stadium in Inglewood, California, and they welcomed a very special surprise guest on stage — Ms. Lambert herself.
