Lainey Wilson “Country’s Cool Again”

Ya’ll know I love me some Lainey Wilson.

Who doesn’t these days, right?

I’m happy to say that I was one of the first to the party. I know good when I see it (or hear it, in her case!).

Well, I was excited to see that Lainey is teasing a new song on social media called “Country’s Cool Again”.

Give it a listen:

@laineywilson There must be something in the water…#CountrysCoolAgain ???? ???? #countrymusic #acousticmusic ♬ original sound – Lainey Wilson

Yep. It’s gonna be a hit, for sure.

Also, here’s her performing it at Red Rocks recently:

Yassss!!!!

So, does that mean a new album?

I sure hope so. Her last release was “Bell Bottom Country” which came out last Fall, and was a huge hit. Her latest single “Watermelon Moonshine” is spending it’s 3rd week at #1 on the Country charts, and her collab with Jelly Roll “Save Me” is climbing the charts with lightening speed.

It’s safe to say that Lainey is here to stay!

Good.

The NEW ESPN College GameDay Theme Song

College Football Season is HERE!!!!

Can I get an AMEN?

Which basically means Fall is here, and I’m beyond ready.

A few weeks ago, it was announced that Big & Rich would no longer be singing ESPN College Gameday’s opening song “Comin’ to Your City”- which was the theme for 16 years. Well, the replacement theme song has just been released, and it’s basically an updated version of “Comin’ to Your City” with The Cadillac Three, Lainey Wilson, and Darius Rucker, and it’s perfect.

Also, I just love Lainey Wilson.

Here’s the OG version by Big & Rich:

So, basically, just a super fun, freshened up version. I’m here for it!

ESPN College Gameday starts at 11:30AM ET tomorrow, and Darius Rucker will be the guest picker for the “Battle of the Carolinas” matchup.

Fall is here, ya’ll!!!!

Well, not technically, but College football and hunting season (Dove) started yesterday, so that’s good enough for me!

Kelly Clarkson Covering Lainey Wilson’s “Heart Like a Truck”

Kelly Clarkson is currently doing her “Chemistry” Las Vegas Residency, and she’s popping a few suprises into every show, like her recent cover of Lainey Wilson’s “Heart Like a Truck”.

Of course, she nailed it and then some.

Here’s another view:

Dammmnnn, girl.

Ok, can we get a Lainey/Kelly Collab now?

Honestly, though, Kelly is one of the best damn vocalists of our generation.

I don’t think anyone can argue that!

Lainey Wilson and Deana Carter “Watermelon Moonshine”

If you’re a Country music fan, you’re propbably well aware of the fact that Lainey Wilson has one of the biggest Country songs of the Summer with “Watermelon Moonshine”, which from the first time I heard it, I was like, “Strawberry Wine” much?

 

Clearly, I’m not the only one who noticed the similarities… Deana Carter herself (the artist behind the masterpeice that is “Strawberry Wine”) just covered Lainey on TikTok and Lainey stitched for a duet.

I don’t know why seeing this made my Country girl heart happy, but it totally did.

Can we get a collab in real life, pretty please?

 

Lainey Wilson, Elle King and Tanya Tanya Tucker “Texas (When I Die)”

CMA Fest 2023 took place last month in Nashville- have you ever been? Omg. It’s a Country fan’s dream. So many incredible performances from the best in the industry, and the highlights always air later in the Summer on ABC.  Well, they had their CMA Fest Special last night hosted by Dierks Bentley, Lainey Wilson and Elle King, and one of my favorite performances involves two of the hosts, and the “Mother Trucker” herself Tanya Tucker on one of her classics “Texas (When I Die)”

Tanya still has it!!!

And damn, Lainey and Elle do, too.  This new generation of women in Country is straight fire.

Keep on breaking up the sausage party that is Country music!!!

Lainey Wilson “Watermelon Moonshine” Music Video

Lainey Wilson is on her way to another #1 hit with “Watermelon Moonshine”, and her new music video will definitely help matters! (Not that she needs it)

Check it out!

First off, Lainey has been hitting the gym or cutting carbs or something. She is looking incredible!

Anyone else reminded of Deana Carter’s “Strawberry Wine” when they hear this song?

You can check out Lainey’s latest album “Bell Bottom Country” out now.

Oh, and because I have to brag about this… I got to interview Lainey last year, and she is legit the COOLEST!

Check out the interview below.

Lauren Alaina Featuring Lainey Wilson “Thicc as Thieves”

You know I love me some Lainey Wilson, and I’ve liked Lauren Alaina since she was on “American Idol” back in 2011. Remember that? Yeah, I used to watch religiously and discuss every performance with my parents because that’s what people did back then.  Anyhow, Lauren Alaina just dropped a 6 song EP “Unlocked” this morning, and it features a really fun song with Lainey Wilson called “Thicc as Thieves”, and of course, it’s super fun.


It actually sounds a lot like Gretchen Wilson’s “Here for the Party” in the beginning. It has that same kind of vibe, too.  I just like the celebration of the big booty, as I have one myself.  And damn proud of it!

Also, I’m pretty sure Lainey Wilson is poised to take over the Country music world. She’s really exploded this past year, and I can’t think of anyone who deserves it more!

Did I ever mention that I interviewed her last year?

Still not over that.

 

Hot Country Knights Feat. Lainey Wilson “Herassmeant”

Ok, so a couple of days ago, I heard that Hot Country Knights (Dierks Bentley’s 90’s Cover Band) collabed with my girl Lainey Wilson, and I was on high alert until this dropped this morning.

Lainey (aka Darla McFarland) and Dierks crushed this song called “Herassmeant”, and let’s be real, Lainey is perfect for it, as she’s got the voice AND the ass for it!

If you didn’t find this funny, well, I’m sorry about your life.

Also, I need Dierks’s shirt.

 

Jelly Roll Feat. Lainey Wilson “Save Me”

Jelly Roll has surprisingly become one of the hottest acts in Country music lately, and it’s well-deserved!

Let’s be honest, no one looks at Jelly Roll and says, “yo, that dude’s COUNTRY”.  But thankfully, Country isn’t just about the look. It’s about the music and the stories and life behind it, and Jelly Roll has one of the best stories to tell.  His song “Save Me” was already great, but add Lainey Wilson to it?  Freaking stellar.


And they performed it on the “American Idol” finale last night with Oliver Steele, and crushed it.

It’s just such a good song with incredible vocals, and a theme that, sadly, many can relate to.  Also, with it being “Mental Health Awareness Month” it’s definitely one I want to share.

By the way, Jelly Roll’s first full-length Country album “WHITSITT CHAPEL” comes out June 2nd.
