Lainey Wilson announces new album – Bell Bottom Country – set for release on 28th October, now available for pre-add/pre-save here.
Lainey Wilson has announced that her new album Bell Bottom Country will be released on the 28th October via BBR Music Group/Broken Bow Records. Wilson revealed the album cover on the Paramount billboard in Times Square and released a brand-new track from the album, “Watermelon Moonshine,” to celebrate the announcement.
Bell Bottom Country draws its name directly from the moniker used to describe the Louisiana native’s unique sound, style and aesthetic — 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, alongside one cover), Lainey reveals her dynamism and makeup as a woman – one who is wise, fun, empowering, vulnerable, badass, unceremonious, tenacious and above all else, real.
Since her debut album, Wilson’s talent has soared, and a lot has changed since the previous release. “I’ve lived quite a bit of life the past few years, and I have a lot more to say,” said Lainey Wilson. “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.”
“Watermelon Moonshine,” out now, is a retrospective coming of age ballad about young love. The song finds Lainey nostalgically reflecting on the dauntlessness of teenage love — and finds amusement in just how confidently unversed to the world she was at the time. “Watermelon Moonshine” is the second song available from Bell Bottom Country, the first being her current single “Heart Like A Truck.”
