Lainey Wilson Announces New Album ‘Whirlwind’

Lainey Wilson has announced that her new album, Whirlwind, will be released via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville on August 23.

The Grammy award winner unveiled the release date for her fifth studio album and its cover artwork on Instagram.

“That’s what my life has been the last couple years. I hope this record brings peace to your ‘whirlwind’ and wraps its arms around you like it did me when I was writing and recording it. August 23. Pre-order and pre-save it now!” she wrote.

She describes Whirlwind as “an innovative and grounded extension” of her 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.”

“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 in a press release. “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.”

Available on Wilson’s merch store, Wilson’s “Wild Horses” fan club members have exclusive access to pre-order a limited edition, signed black and white vinyl.
