Lainey Wilson has given fans a taste of what’s coming, and they’re already counting the days.
The country star just dropped a short, stripped-down preview of her new track “Peace, Love and Cowboys,” and judging by the reactions, it’s about to be a fan favorite. The song will be featured on her upcoming Whirlwind (Deluxe) album, set for release on August 22, 2025.
Wilson posted the clip on social media with the caption, “We need more peace, love and cowboys ✌🏼🤠 #WhirlwindDeluxe #PeaceLoveAndCowboys.” In the video, she’s posted up on a front porch, casually strumming an acoustic guitar. She’s wearing blue jeans, a brown top, turquoise jewelry, and her signature big beige cowgirl hat.
Singing lines like, “Westerns and whiskey, horses and hippies, we need more peace, love and cowboys / Long hair and Stetsons, barbwire and blessings, we need more peace, love and cowboys,” Wilson delivers the warm, nostalgic vibe that’s made her one of the most celebrated voices in modern country.
Fans didn’t hold back in the comments. “We also NEED this song! Is it 08/22 yet?” wrote one, while another added, “OMG LAINEY, I NEED THIS NEW BANGER 🥹🎶.” Others kept it simple with pure excitement: “Love this song already!❤️🔥” and “need this song ASAP!!! 😍✌🏻.”
The anticipation is real, and with good reason. Whirlwind (Deluxe) will feature all 14 original tracks from the standard edition plus five new songs. Alongside “Peace, Love and Cowboys,” listeners can expect “Somewhere Over Laredo,” “Bell Bottoms Up,” and two other unreleased tracks that have yet to be teased.
Wilson’s knack for blending traditional country storytelling with her own fresh edge has made her a standout in the genre, and this preview suggests she’s doubling down on that winning formula. The acoustic setting in the clip gives fans a raw, intimate feel, letting the song’s easy charm shine without the full production, though if her past work is anything to go by, the studio version is bound to pack even more punch.
With Whirlwind already cementing her place as one of country’s brightest stars, the Deluxe edition feels like a victory lap, one that’s still offering brand-new gems for fans to fall in love with. August 22 can’t come soon enough, but until then, this front porch preview will have to hold everyone over.
Whether it’s the laid-back melody, the classic cowboy imagery, or Wilson’s effortlessly cool delivery, “Peace, Love and Cowboys” is shaping up to be one of the highlights of her upcoming release. For now, fans will keep replaying the clip, counting down the days until they can hit repeat on the full version.
