Wilson to release new album
Country’s biggest star right now, Lainey
Wilson, has announced her highly anticipated
brand-new album, ‘Whirlwind’, will
be released on August 23.
A daringly honest look into the singer’s life
and journey around the globe and produced
by Grammy Award-winning producer, Jay
Joyce, ‘Whirlwind’ is an innovative
and grounded extension of
Wilson’s signature sound. Bridging
together a diverse yet sonically
cohesive collection of songs,
the record bends genres
while remaining true to the
singer’s Western roots.
By guiding listeners
through each song and
an array of emotions,
Wilson weaves
together storytelling
with melodies –
creating narratives
and storylines that
capture the essence
of life’s highs, lows,
and in-betweens,
solidifying her role as one of the greatest
songwriters of her generation.
“I am so excited to finally announce
‘Whirlwind’. This album has been a long
time coming, and I can’t wait for the world to
have this body of work in their hands soon,”
Wilson said.
“This new chapter of music is the most
cathartic and personal piece of art I’ve
ever made. I hope this record brings some
peace to your whirlwind and wraps its arms
around you like it did for me.”
Fantastic new collaboration
River Town Saints (pictured), the
award-winning Canadian country band,
and Kaylee Bell, Australasia’s most streamed
female country artist, have joined forces to
release their latest single, ‘Lying in Bed’.
This captivating track delves into the
profound emotions of feeling distant despite
physical proximity, resonating
with audiences on both sides of
the globe.
“When the idea of collaborating
emerged, Kaylee Bell
was the natural choice,”
shared River Town Saints.
“Her remarkable talent
and passion for music
align perfectly with
the essence of ‘Lying
in Bed’. We’re
thrilled to have
her on board and
introduce her to
Canadian country
music enthusiasts.”
