Country Sensation Lainey Wilson Announces Surprise Album & 2025 Tour: Full Details Inside
• Hot Trendy News
Lead-in
Country star Lainey Wilson cemented her 2025 dominance last night with a spell-binding live premiere of her brand-new single “Somewhere Over Laredo” at the American Music Awards in Las Vegas.
H2: A goose-bump performance that nods to a classic
Draped in a white bell-bottom suit and cape, Wilson leaned on a lone piano to unveil the track, which cleverly interpolates the timeless melody of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” The stripped-back arrangement highlighted her Louisiana twang while the lyric’s open-road imagery (“red-eye flight out of Houston… twenty minutes from now I’ll be somewhere over Laredo”) drew instant social-media buzz, pushing “Somewhere Over Laredo” into real-time trending status.
H2: What we know about the single
• Writers: Lainey Wilson, Trannie Anderson, Dallas Wilson, Andy Albert
• Release plan: “Somewhere Over Laredo” headlines the deluxe edition of Wilson’s 2024 LP Whirlwind, arriving 22 August 2025.
• Bonus tracks on the deluxe set include “King Ranch, King George, King James,” “Yesterday, All Day, Every Day,” “Peace, Love, and Cowboys,” and honky-tonk anthem “Bell Bottoms Up.”
H2: Awards momentum keeps building
The AMA showcase comes weeks after Wilson swept the 60th Academy of Country Music Awards, repeating as Entertainer of the Year and securing Album of the Year for Whirlwind. With back-to-back top accolades, she joins an elite trio of women (Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift) to pull off consecutive EOTY wins.
H2: Tour dates fueling fan demand
Wilson’s Whirlwind World Tour is two months in and continues through November 2025, hitting marquee stops such as:
• 31 May-1 Jun – Red Mile, Lexington, KY
• 10-20 Jul – Ottawa Bluesfest, Canada
• 14 Aug – Phoenix, AZ (PHX Arena)
• 15 Aug – Albuquerque, NM (Isleta Amphitheater)
Expect “Somewhere Over Laredo” to anchor the set list alongside chart-toppers “Watermelon Moonshine” and “Heart Like a Truck.”
H2: Why “Somewhere Over Laredo” matters for summer 2025 playlists
• Hum-along familiarity thanks to the Wizard of Oz reference
• Breezy Tex-Mex imagery perfect for road-trip streaming
• Timed to capitalize on festival season and Wilson’s tour leg
H2: Key takeaways for fans and playlists
1. Pre-save the Whirlwind deluxe edition now to hear five new tracks on 22 Aug.
2. Snag remaining tour tickets quickly—many amphitheater dates are nearing sell-out.
3. Watch the AMA performance replay to catch subtle lyrical changes hinting at future singles.
Closing
With a show-stopping AMA debut, a deluxe album on deck, and sold-out arenas ahead, Lainey Wilson is positioning “Somewhere Over Laredo” as the undisputed country soundtrack of summer 2025.
