Miranda Lambert is said to have a new love interest in her life and he's been in the Quad Cities twice this past year! Who he is just might surprise you!

According to Yahoo! Entertainment:The 32-year-old Grammy winner is dating 27-year-old singer Anderson East, a source tells ET. "It's fairly new. They started seeing each other less than two months ago," the source says. "They are just having fun and seeing where it goes."

Now that the rest of the world seems to be adjusting to the Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani relationship, it's Miranda's turn, to brave the road of new relationships.

I am still kicking myself that I missed not only one, but TWO of his performances this past year! Arg. So frustrating... I am still kicking myself! Last spring, a friend of mine texted a link to Anderson East's music and urged me to check him out. I loved his sound instantly. His raspy voice, the soul in his music and the fact our local recording studio, Daytrotter, has had a session with him, made me love him (and them) all the more.

Then again, Anderson East graced the Quad Cities with his musical genius at the East Fest (no, not named after him) in the Village of East Davenport this past September.  it was a day of family fun and music with Anderson East headlining.

He is a spectacular, on-the-rise talent and his debut album "Delilah," out last month on Elektra Records is one of the most soulful R&B records to come out in a great many years. He is soon to be a household name.
