Louisiana singer Lainey Wilson’s new album ‘Bell Bottom Country’ drops in October.
It’s been quite a year or two for Louisiana singer/songwriter Lainey Wilson. Among her accolades are Female Vocalist of the Year and Best New Country Artist.
Now Wilson is preparing to release her next album in October titled ‘Bell Bottom Country’.
Anyone who follows Lainey on social media will be aware of her penchant for bell bottoms and this refers to that and the term that many people have come to use to describe the Louisiana native’s unique sound, style and aesthetic — it’s Country, but with a flare.
The hotly anticipated album reflects Lainey's depth and multifaceted character with elements of ‘70s Rock, Funk and Soul but remains Country to the core. Across the 14 songs (all of which she co-wrote, except one cover), Lainey reveals her dynamism and makeup as a woman who is wise, fun, empowering, vulnerable, badass, unceremonious, tenacious and above all else, real.
While just as authentic as her critically-acclaimed Sayin’ What I’m Thinkin’, Bell Bottom Country displays Lainey’s immeasurable growth as person, artist and especially as a songwriter that has leveled up since writing the last album.
“I've lived quite a bit of life the past few years, and I have a lot more to say,” said Lainey. “Sure, I love a good pair of bell bottoms, but Bell Bottom Country to me has always been about the flare and what makes someone unique — I have really embraced mine, and I hope y’all can hear that across this project.”
Lainey delivers a retrospective coming of age ballad about young love with the brand new “Watermelon Moonshine” and you can hear that song playing now on our Currents Playlist on White Sand Radio.
