As if she needed any reason to be any hotter right now, Nashville sensation Lainey Wilson — who leads the nominees for the Nov. 8 Country Music Awards with nine nods — is getting ready to take her show on the road.
The 31-year-old singer announced Friday that she will launch her Country’s Cool Again Tour in 2024, beginning with a date at Nashville’s Ascend Amphitheater on May 31.
The highly anticipated trek for the “Yellowstone” star will include a June 26 date at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall.
“Nothing gets me buzzin’ like putting on a show and singing along with the crowd,” Wilson told The Post.
“I want to give a big thank you to all of the fans who have continuously showed up and showed out this year. We can’t wait to to see you nationwide on the Country’s Cool Again Tour!”
Indeed, Wilson — who is currently riding high on the country charts with her latest single, “Watermelon Moonshine” — is on a roll following previous hits “Things a Man Oughta Know,” “Never Say Never” (with Cole Swindell), “Heart Like a Truck” and “Wait in the Truck” (with Hardy).
And the former Hannah Montana impersonator — who is now up for entertainer of the year at the CMAs, going up against Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, Carrie Underwood and Chris Stapleton — is ready to take her own show to the masses in 2024.
“It’s a big jump from from where we were top of this year playing clubs,” Wilson added. “It’s really crazy to kind of sit back and think about the growth of what has happened.”
Wilson was recently coined a “hummingbird” onstage by Randy Travis’ wife, Mary Davis.
“I was playing Billy Bob’s Texas [in Fort Worth, Texas], and when it was over, she came up to me and said, ‘I’m going to start calling you hummingbird, because you look like a little hummingbird running around that stage,’ ” she said.
“I definitely feed off of people’s energy in the crowd. So it’s kind of like an energy exchange for me, you know? If they’re giving it to me, I’m giving it right back. And I just kind of leave it all out there on the stage — all the good, the bad and the ugly.”
Wilson certainly has come a long way from seeing her first concert while growing up in Baskin, Louisiana.
“It was Tim McGraw … I think I was 3 or 4 years old,” Wilson said.
“Tim McGraw actually grew up right down the road from me. So I kind of always viewed him as this hometown hero. And if he did it, maybe I could do it, too.”
