Grammy, CMA, and ACM Award-winning singer-songwriter Lainey Wilson took the stage at the Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Halftime Show as part of The Salvation Army’s 134th Red Kettle Campaign. During her performance, Wilson delivered a medley of her hits, including her current radio single, “4x4xU.” She also surprised fans by bringing out fellow artist and friend Jelly Roll to perform their chart-topping collaboration, “Save Me.” Watch the full performance HERE.
In the spirit of giving this holiday season, Wilson’s charity, the Heart Like A Truck Fund, is launching the Heart Like A Truck Fund Week of Giving to make donations to various organizations throughout the week in honor of Giving Tuesday. Each day, Wilson will spotlight a different organization to raise awareness and support their cause. The week kicks off today with a donation to The Salvation Army, followed by a contribution to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital on Wednesday. Later in the week, Wilson will support organizations chosen by her fans, with her Heart Like A Truck Fund committing over $70,000 throughout the initiative.

Adding to Wilson’s triumphant year, she recently took home two awards at the 58th Annual CMA Awards: Female Vocalist of the Year and Music Video of the Year (“Wildflowers and Wild Horses”). Wilson also made her hosting debut alongside Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan and performed “4x4xU” and “Amarillo by Morning” as part of the George Strait Lifetime Achievement tribute during the live show. Wilson’s live version of “4x4xU” is now available on all streaming platforms. Listen/share HERE.
Wilson is nominated for Best Country Album for her album Whirlwind at the upcoming 67th Annual Grammy Awards. Produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Jay Joyce (Miranda Lambert, Eric Church), Whirlwind was released via BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville this past summer and earned Wilson her best sales week ever, debuting at #8 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart—her first top-10 entry. Stream/purchase HERE.
The album adds to an already monumental career for Wilson, who, in just the past year, was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, won Best Country Album at the 2024 Grammy Awards, three awards at the 59th Annual ACM Awards, and five awards at the 57th Annual CMA Awards—including Entertainer of the Year at both the ACMs and CMAs. Wilson also received two awards at the 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, given to an artist who has had an unprecedented or outstanding year in country music. Moreover, Wilson wrote and recorded “Out of Oklahoma,” featured in the new Twisters movie.
Wilson recently wrapped up her wildly successful Country’s Cool Again tour across the U.S. She has a few more shows lined up to close out the year, including a performance at the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. In March, she’ll head to Europe for the C2C Festival, with performances in Zurich, Copenhagen, London, Glasgow, and more. See below for the complete tour itinerary.
