The Grammy Award-winning musician recently released a new track titled, "Country's Cool Again," following her 2022 Bellbottom Country album. Wilson will perform the track live on the CMT Awards stage on Sunday, April 7 where she is also a nominee in three categories.

Wilson will hit the road for her headlining 2024 Country's Cool Again Tour with supporting acts Jacson Dean, Ian Munsick, and Zach Top. The tour will kick off in Nashville on May 31 and run through November 15 in Monroe, Louisiana.

As she celebrates her 31st birthday today (5/19), Lainey Wilson is the reigning Female Vocalist for the ACMs and the CMAs. She also won the ACM Album of the Year award for Bell Bottom Country, beating out albums by  Miranda Lambert and Luke Combs.

There is no doubt that Lainey is well on her way to becoming a country music superstar. She currently opens stadium shows for Luke Combs and gets a performance slot at the 2023 CMA Fest at Nissan Stadium in June in front of 65,000 fans worldwide.

As she celebrates her big day today (5/19), we count down what we believe are her six very best songs to date, with many more to come in the future.

6 - "Watermelon Moonshine" (2023)

The chorus of this fun song includes the lyrics, "Drinkin' watermelon moonshine / We cut the burn with a little lime / Parkin' back in them kudzu vines / I was his and every bit of that boy was mine / Too young to know what love was / But we were learnin' on a sweet buzz / There's never nothin' like the first time / And mine's always gonna taste like / Watermelon moonshine."


5 - "Never Say Never" (Cole Swindell with Lainey Wilson) (2021)

A fun song that Lainey performed at the 58th ACM Awards, where she won Album of the Year for "Bell Bottom Country." Wilson released a dancing video for the song, finding country breakdancers that she saw at one of her shows and tracked them down to appear in the video.


3 - "Things a Man Oughta Know" (2020)

The song won the ACM 2021 Song of the Year.


2 - "Heart Like a Truck" (2022)

Lainey said of the song when it came out, "It's a song about finding freedom and strength. Not being afraid of the scars and the bruises and the bumps along the way. That makes you who you are. It builds character." It recently became her third number-one song on the Billboard charts.


1 - "Wait in the Truck" (HARDY with Lainey Wilson) (2022)

So many things to say about this amazing song. It just recently won Visual Media (video) of the Year and Music Event of the Year at the 58th ACM Awards. The music video is epic of the song labeled as a "murder ballad" about a male protagonist killing an abuser. Lainey and HARDY performed the song at the 2022 CMA Awards.
