Lainey Wilson has premiered the official music video for her hit track ‘Things a Man Oughta Know.’ Watch below.
Promising country star, Lainey Wilson has debuted the stunning new music video for her top 30 single, “Things a Man Oughta Know.” The singer will partner with YouTube and iHeartCountry to premiere the dramatic video, partially filmed in Lainey’s own home. The video will premiere at 6pm BST / 12pm CT, with a live chat with fans as it airs. Lainey will then go live on Instagram at 7pm BST / 1pm CT, with an Instagram Live Group Chat hosted by Emily Curl, welcoming fans, collaborators and actors who starred in the music video.
“I hoped that people would connect to this song and it’s been so incredible to see just how strong the reaction has been,” said Lainey Wilson. “For the music video, we wanted to create a piece of art where people could watch it and feel something all over again.”
The suspenseful video which depicts a way a man “got it wrong” is Lainey’s first music video as a signed artist and incorporates many personal elements. In addition to filming the video locally – you can’t get much more local than her own kitchen – Lainey brought in longtime friend Sean O’Halloran to help direct the short film alongside co-director Chris Ashlee. O’Halloran’s daughter also appears in the film, as well as Lainey’s friend and Luke Combs band member, Kurt Ozan.
“Things A Man Oughta Know” has been a fan favourite and called a “song every Country fan needs to hear” (Taste of Country) and a “must listen” (Rolling Stone). With more than 43 million on-demand streams, it has been featured on key streaming playlists and is currently in the Top 10 on Sirius XM’s The Highway’s Hot 30 Weekend Countdown. She continues to see significant increases in sales, consumption and streaming, landing her in the fourth spot on the Shazam Discovery Chart (US) as well as the Shazam Discovery Top 50 (Global).
