Lainey Wilson has dropped the deluxe edition of her chart-topping album Whirlwind, out now via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville. The expanded release adds five brand-new songs to the original 14-track record: Bell Bottoms Up, King Ranch, King George, King James, Yesterday, All Day, Every Day, Peace, Love, and Cowboys and her fast-rising single Somewhere Over Laredo.
The latter has been making waves across country radio, debuting as the most added song upon release and racking up over 1.16 million streams in its first 24 hours—a personal best for Wilson. Critics have praised her performance, with Billboard calling it “one of her most commanding, dynamic vocal performances to date.”
The expanded Whirlwind follows a monumental year for Wilson. She took home four trophies at the 60th ACM Awards including her second consecutive Entertainer of the Year win, performed at the Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Halftime Show, hosted the 58th CMA Awards alongside Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan, and unveiled new fashion collaborations including her fourth Wrangler collection.
Wilson also remains a prolific collaborator, with hits alongside Jelly Roll (Save Me), Cole Swindell (Never Say Never), and HARDY (wait in the truck). Beyond music, she’s set to make her feature film debut in the upcoming adaptation of Colleen Hoover’s Reminders of Him, after her successful acting role in Yellowstone.
Born in Baskin, Louisiana, Lainey Wilson grew up steeped in country music, performing from a young age before moving to Nashville to chase her dreams. Known for her signature bell-bottom style and blend of modern country with traditional storytelling, she steadily built her reputation as both a songwriter and performer.
Wilson’s breakthrough came with the release of Sayin’ What I’m Thinkin’ in 2021, featuring the Platinum hit Things a Man Oughta Know.
Her follow-up, Bell Bottom Country (2022), solidified her as a star, producing multiple #1 singles and earning her widespread acclaim. Whirlwind (2024) became her career-defining release, winning Album of the Year at the ACM Awards and expanding her global fanbase.
