Ondertussen een best grote dame in de V.S. die blijkbaar ook hier wat fans heeft. Haar optreden in De Roma op 6 maart is uitverkocht, al zal dat wel grotendeels liggen aan onze noorderburen die massaal afgezakt komen en wat Amerikanen uit de Brusselse regio. Lainey Wilson is nu niet het type country ster waar ik wakker van lig, een pak tè 'country' voor mijn smaak. Al zal ik niet ontkennen dat de dame van grote klasse getuigt, zowel qua songwriting, uitvoering als live optredens.

In just the past year, Wilson was also inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, performed during the Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Halftime Show, won Best Country Album at the 2024 Grammy Awards, three awards at the 59th ACM Awards and two awards at the 58th CMA Awards, where she also made her hosting debut alongside Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan. Wilson also received two awards at this year’s ACM Honors: the prestigious Triple Crown Award—presented to those who have won ACM Entertainer of the Year, Female/Male Vocalist of the Year and New Female/Male Vocalist of the Year—and the Milestone Award, which is given to an artist who has had an unprecedented or outstanding year in country music.
A prolific and sought-after songwriter, Wilson has scored eight #1 hits including “4x4xU,” “Watermelon Moonshine” and the 2x PLATINUM Certified “Heart Like A Truck,” and has also collaborated with artists such as Post Malone (“Nosedive”), Cole Swindell (“Never Say Never”), Jelly Roll (“Save Me”) and HARDY (“wait in the truck”). She is also a triple threat within entertainment as a singer, songwriter and actor, as she made her acting debut in season 5 of Paramount’s hit series Yellowstone and recently returned for its final episode of the series. Moreover, Wilson wrote and recorded “Out of Oklahoma,” which was featured in the new Twisters movie.
