American country music singer and songwriter, Lainey Wilson was raised in the small town of Baskin, Louisiana. Lainey became interested in music at a young age.

Her first PLATINUM Certified ACM Song of the Year, "Things A Man Oughta Know," continues to captivate audiences with her signature Bell Bottom Country sound and aesthetic.
