Lainey Wilson is giving fans a taste of her newest music.
In a video posted to social media this week, the singer treated followers to a porch-side performance of "Peace, Love, and Cowboys," a country-western anthem with hippie sensibilities. Clad in a large tan Stetson hat and '70s-inspired shades, Wilson strummed out several verses from the song, which is expected to be featured on the deluxe version of her "Whirlwind" album out later this month.
"Westerns and whiskey, horses and hippies, we need more peace, love and cowboys / Long hair and Stetsons, barbed wire and blessings, we need more peace, love and cowboys," she crooned, drawing up imagery of a dusty, wild-west, but injecting a folk music sound.
"We need more peace, love and cowboys #WhirlwindDeluxe #PeaceLoveAndCowboys," she captioned the post, which was immediately flooded with fan comments hungry for the deluxe album to drop.
The original album, Wilson's fifth, was released in August 2024. A 14-track ramble into honky-tonk sounds and boot stomping dance music, the "Whirlwind" deluxe album will drop Aug. 22 and feature three additional songs: "King Ranch, King George, King James" and "Yesterday, All Day, Everyday," along with "Peace, Love, and Cowboys."
Wilson's tour to support the album kicked off Aug. 14 in Phoenix. Her set was opened by growing country acts Ernest and Kaitlin Butts.
Other opening acts slated for the rest of the tour include Muscadine Bloodline, Maddox Batson, Drake Milligan, Lauren Watkins and Zach Meadows.
