The Story Behind The Lainey Wilson/Miranda Lambert Duet on “Whirlwind” Album- Out Today!

Lainey Wilson’s much anticapted “Whirlwind” album is out today and features 14 tracks, including a collaboration with Miranda Lambert on the song “Good Horses,” that was written at Lambert’s farm.

But how did the song come about?

“Miranda said, ‘Come hang out and take a nap. Me and Brendan [McLoughlin, Lambert’s husband] will feed you and then maybe we can write a song.’ They made burgers and pasta, we had everything,” Wilson told Billboard in a recent interview.

“I had this [song] idea for quite a while and a lot of people had passed us up on writing it. Looking back on it, I’m glad they did because it was supposed to be us who wrote it together. But I think the magic kind of came from me and her having a lot in common when it comes to that love of the road, having a gypsy soul.
