Review

Lainey Wilson’s 2022 sophomore outing, "Bell Bottom Country," is a tip of the hat to the rich tapestry of country music while infusing it with her own fiery, fresh twist. Kicking things off, tracks like "Hillbilly Hippie" and "Road Runner" pack a punch that grabs you right from the start. Lainey doesn't just play music; she tells stories with a beat, and this album is like a well-oiled tractor, running smoothly from tune to tune with a hefty dose of soul and swagger.

The heart of "Bell Bottom Country" beats strongest in songs like "Watermelon Moonshine" and "These Boots (Deddy's Song)," where Wilson shares vignettes from her life that feel both personal and universal—the kind of songs that remind you of warm Southern nights and the twang of a well-tuned guitar. In cuts like "Atta Girl" and "Live Off," her lyrics shine with a cleverness and depth that set her apart in a scene that's crowded with many lookin’ to make their mark. This album isn't just a breath of fresh air; it's a gust that reorients you towards what modern country can be when it’s done right. For anyone who’s got a heart for tales set to music, "Bell Bottom Country" is a must-hear—proof that Lainey Wilson isn’t just following trails but blazing her own. - Rex
