She has such a distinctive voice and an unreal ability to tell a story through it” shared Smith. “Having her jump on this and put her own melodic spins on the song just took it to a whole new level and gave it a new life! The song is all about those unexpected connections that can change everything and hearing Lainey’s voice on it makes it feel even more special. I am so grateful she was up for doing this and I cannot wait for everyone to hear it.”

ABOUT LAINEY WILSON:
Country music trailblazer Lainey Wilson continues to take over the world, capturing the hearts of music fans, the excitement of the industry and the recognition of her peers, while keeping her boots firmly planted on the ground. Her monumental rise continues with major milestones, including her induction into the Grand Ole Opry, co-hosting the 58th Annual CMA Awards alongside Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning, headlining the Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving Halftime Show as part of The Salvation Army’s 134th Red Kettle Campaign and her upcoming, nearly sold out Whirlwind World Tour, which will span across Europe and North America.
Wilson’s latest studio album, Whirlwind, earned a Grammy nomination for Best Country Album at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards and was hailed by The Tennessean as “the best release of her career.” Whirlwind debuted at #8 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart and #13 on the UK Official Albums Chart, marking Wilson’s first top 10 and top 15 entries, respectively. The album earned spots on several “Best Albums of 2024” lists, including Rolling Stone, Billboard and The Boston Globe. Produced by Jay Joyce, Whirlwind provides a daringly honest exploration of Wilson’s life and journey around the globe. It reveals a diverse yet sonically cohesive collection of songs, bending genres while remaining true to her Western roots.
The Grammy-winning, CMA and ACM Entertainer of the Year is a prolific, sought-after songwriter who has scored seven No. 1 hits including “Watermelon Moonshine,” and the 2x Platinum Certified “Heart Like A Truck,” in addition to award-winning collaborations with Cole Swindell (“Never Say Never”), Jelly Roll (“Save Me”) and HARDY (“wait in the truck”). Wilson has also become a triple threat within entertainment as a singer, songwriter and actor. She made her acting debut in season 5 of Paramount’s hit series Yellowstone and wrote and recorded “Out of Oklahoma,” an original song for Universal’s blockbuster Twisters. Beyond her artistry, Wilson’s on-stage performances triumph from sold-out tours across America, Australia and Europe to highly coveted music festivals such as Stagecoach, Lollapalooza and Watershed.
ABOUT MYLES SMITH:
Hailing from Luton, Myles’ journey is grounded in authenticity. Taught to play the guitar and piano by the age of 12, he performed at local pubs and open-mic nights before gaining traction on TikTok in 2020. His covers of “Sweater Weather” and “I Found” went viral, paving the way for original songs like “Solo” and “My Home” that earned him a deal with Sony’s RCA label in 2023. Myles’ unique ability to unite audiences through his heartfelt lyrics is evident in his smash hit “Stargazing,” which pairs soaring melodies with introspective storytelling.
The past year has seen Myles win the prestigious BRITs ‘Rising Star’ award along with being recognised as BBC Introducing’s Artist of the Year for 2024 in addition to making the longlist for BBC’s prestigious Sound Of poll. His recent EP A Minute… has further solidified his status which also features the recent viral hit “Nice To Meet You.” Alongside sold-out dates on his 2024 global tour, Myles has graced stages on the TODAY Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Later… with Jools Holland. Looking ahead, Myles will embark on his sold-out UK tour later this month before joining Ed Sheeran on the European leg of the Mathematics Tour.
“Stargazing” is now the biggest global single from a UK artist this year, spending 36 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and amassing over 900 million global streams. The track is a centerpiece of his growing catalogue, which has now surpassed 1.6 billion streams worldwide. The single was the top-selling 2024 single by an English artist and has dominated airplay charts across the US, UK, Germany, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden and Switzerland.
Myles continues to dominate global charts with his platinum-certified single “Stargazing.” This week, the track hit it’s 11th week at #1 on Hot AC radio in the US, making Myles the first UK artist to reach #1 on all three major radio formats in the US with a debut radio single. It’s now the longest running #1 this decade by a British act, surpassing Adele’s “Easy On Me”. In addition, Myles is the first UK artist to reach #1 on all three major radio formats (Top 40, Hot AC, Alternative) in the US with a debut radio single.
As he continues to shape his legacy, Myles Smith is undeniably an artist to watch in 2025 and beyond.
