Country stardom may have Lainey Wilson going a mile a minute, but she's ready to slow things down for a new musical journey.
Wilson revealed the track list for her upcoming album "Whirlwind" on social media Tuesday.
The Grammy-winning singer made the announcement with a video that unveiled the titles of the 14 new songs. The clip also featured a snippet of the unreleased song "4x4xU."
"Writing (and) recording these 14 songs over the past couple of years has helped me stay grounded in ways you’d never believe," Wilson wrote. "This album brought me back to my roots and made me feel at home during times when I couldn’t have been further away, and my biggest hope is that it gives you that same sense of comfort that it has for me."
"Whirlwind," Wilson's fifth studio effort to date, is the follow-up to 2022's "Bell Bottom Country." The album earned Wilson a trio of Top 5 hits on Billboard's Country Airplay chart, as well as a Grammy Award for best country album.

Lainey Wilson announces 'Whirlwind' album, explains title meaning
Wilson announced the upcoming release of "Whirlwind" on social media in May with a photo of the album cover. The "Watermelon Moonshine" singer also shared the significance of the album's title.
"Whirlwind. That’s what my life has been the last couple years," Wilson wrote. "I hope this record brings peace to your ‘whirlwind’ and wraps its arms around you like it did me when I was writing and recording it."
In an accompanying interview with Billboard, Wilson opened up about how the "very rapid pace" of her life inspired the title.
"Whether I'm running into somebody and they're saying, 'Man, your life has been a whirlwind' — or whether the word’s coming out of my mouth, or I open a book and see the word 'whirlwind,' it just seems to be surrounding me," Wilson said at the time. "Whirlwinds cause turbulence that cause chaos. But at the end of the day, you figure out how to come back to the center."
