Lainey Wilson Debuts New Apple Music Sessions EP.
Lainey Wilson has released an exclusive new Apple Music Sessions EP.
Recorded in London, the Lainey Wilson Sessions includes covers of The Beatles’ “Come Together” and Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved,” as well as a reimagined version of her song “Devil Don’t Go There.”
Wilson joined The Kelleigh Bannen Show in London to discuss the EP, and on her cover of “Come Together.” “Last year when we were here [in London], we got to record a song at Abbey Road, and just really felt that energy in the building,” Wilson recalled. “And just trying to wrap your head around how influential The Beatles really are and what they have done to every single genre.”
On her choice of the Lewis Capaldi cover she added: “I watched his documentary and it really inspired me to see how he works, and how he just goes into his hole, and if he’s not feeling creative, he fights for it. You know what I’m saying? He fights for that creativity, which I love.”
The release adds to yet another banner year for Wilson, whose latest single “Somewhere Over Laredo,” earned Wilson her biggest first day of streaming to date with 1.16M. The song is from the deluxe version of Wilson’s album, Whirlwind, set for release August 22.
Wilson is currently in the midst of her “Whirlwind World Tour,” which includes stops at New York’s Madison Square Garden, Los Angeles’ Kia Forum, Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, Austin’s Moody Center and Denver’s Ball Arena, among many others.
