Review

Lainey Wilson's 'Whirlwind' is like a warm embrace from an old friend, filled with stories that touch your heart and melodies that stick in your mind. The album kicks off with 'Keep Up With Jones,' a honky-tonk gem that instantly transports you to a cozy bar where laughter and music flow freely. It's the kind of song that makes you want to grab your partner and twirl across the dance floor, even if you've got two left feet!

Working with Jay Joyce on production, Lainey brought her touring band into the studio, creating a sound that feels as authentic as a homemade apple pie. This decision adds a special flavor to tracks like 'Bar In Baton Rouge' and 'Counting Chickens,' which showcase Lainey's knack for weaving slow-building narratives with down-home country tunes. It's like sitting on a porch swing, listening to a friend share their most treasured memories.

The album's diversity is one of its greatest strengths, with Lainey effortlessly blending pop, rock, and soul into her country roots. 'Ring Finger' brings a funky vibe that'll have you tapping your toes, while the collaboration with Miranda Lambert on 'Good Horses' is pure country magic. From the celebratory 'Country's Cool Again' to the heart-wrenching 'Whiskey Colored Crayon,' Lainey takes us on an emotional journey that feels like flipping through a cherished photo album, each song a snapshot of life's joys and sorrows. - Yumi
