Mini bio

From Baskin to Nashville.

Lainey grew up in a farming community in northeastern Louisiana. She sang at her kindergarten graduation, wrote songs as a child and learned to work a crowd at local events. As a teenager, she performed as Hannah Montana and booked herself as the opening act. In 2011, she moved to Nashville to pursue music.

The song that opened doors.

She signed a publishing deal in 2017 and a recording deal with Broken Bow Records in 2018. “Things a Man Oughta Know,” co-written with Jason Nix and Jonathan Singleton, became her first country radio No. 1 in 2021. It appeared on Sayin’ What I’m Thinkin’, produced by Jay Joyce.

Bell bottoms and bigger stages.

Bell Bottom Country brought together “Heart Like a Truck,” “Watermelon Moonshine” and “Wildflowers and Wild Horses,” and won the 2024 Grammy for Best Country Album. Whirlwind followed in 2024, with a deluxe edition in 2025. Alongside her records and tours, Lainey has acted in Yellowstone and Reminders of Him.
