About this listen
Lainey Wilson has been everywhere lately and showing no signs of slowing down. Hot off a string of sold-out dates on her Whirlwind World Tour including a huge show at Chicago’s Allstate Arena on October 17—documented by fans and creating a swirling buzz on social media—Lainey doubled down on her artist-as-influencer status with the launch of her first-ever holiday collaboration with Wrangler. The Wrangler x Lainey Wilson Holiday collection, which dropped October 16, offers 18 pieces full of black satin, sparkling denim, oversized tees, and her signature statement fringe, all designed to “bottle the magic of the holidays,” as she put it in the press materials covered by Parade and highlighted by Good Morning America. Fans online went wild for the announcement, with Instagram posts showing off her Western holiday couture prompting comments like “I need this collection” and “My wallet can’t take anymore Lainey collections.” Commerce and cowgirl cool are colliding in a big way for her this season.
That’s not the only seasonal surprise she delivered. Wilson just released Peace Love and Cowboys Holiday Edition, her festive new EP including a posthumous duet with Bing Crosby on Let It Snow and a country take on Christmas Cookies, with digital out now and physical releases scheduled for November. Independent outlets like BackstageAxxess and Coyote Country are spotlighting how she’s threading the holidays into her new music and prepping for a December 10 Grand Ole Opry Christmas concert, likely to be a scene for legendary collaborations. All of this comes at a time when her current single Somewhere Over Laredo is climbing radio charts and generating a new wave of fan engagement, not least thanks to a viral TikTok of four-year-old Millie belting the song at a beauty pageant. Lainey’s genuine online reaction—“Superstar! Killed it sister”—prompted the family to meet Lainey at her St. Louis show, with American Songwriter gushing about how she’s become a true role model for young girls and, as Jelly Roll said on stage, “the role model us parents were praying for.”
Wilson’s biographical significance keeps deepening, not just in music but now in film. ABC Audio and Sanilac Broadcasting premiered the trailer for Reminders of Him, marking her feature film debut and giving fans a look at her alongside stars like Maika Monroe and Lauren Graham. The movie lands next March and marks a new chapter after her Yellowstone cameo. Meanwhile, her ongoing Tough as Nails exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame, running through the fall, continues to celebrate her meteoric rise and Out of Oklahoma spirit.
National headlines, industry accolades—Lainey just landed on the TIME100 Next list for 2025—and a relentless tour schedule, including upcoming dates in Australia, New Zealand, and a headline spot at Stagecoach Festival, put her at the absolute forefront of country music stardom right now. There are no credible reports of controversy or unconfirmed rumors swirling at the moment; everything points to a country star hitting her stride and expanding her influence, all with her signature blend of heart, hustle, and holiday sparkle.
