Lainey Wilson Attended CMA Music Festival Since 14 Years Old

Featuring hitmakers like Lainey Wilson, the rising star recalled how she attended the festival numerous times before stepping on stage. “I’ve come to CMA Fest every year since I was 14. My parents, they would bring my sister and me every summer. They knew how much we love country music, but they also, it was kind of a learning experience.”

Performing a few of her hit songs like “Heart Like A Truck” and “Watermelon Moonshine”, Wilson thanked Keith Urban for helping her when it comes to performing. “Every Keith Urban CMA Fest show I’ve ever seen brings the dang house down. It truly is about the music for that man, so I’ve learned a lot from him.”

As for hosting, Jelly Roll saw the opportunity as another full-circle moment in his career. He said, “The magnitude of the moment really hit me, to be across the street from the juvenile detention center I was in and to now be onstage hosting—how do you describe being in the same exact place while being in a place that couldn’t be more different, at the same time.”
