The Rumors Were True, Keith Urban & Lainey Wilson Drop New Collab

Keith Urban and Lainey Wilson have released a brand-new collaboration

Earlier this year, country music superstars Lainey Wilson and Keith Urban sparked collaboration rumors when they posted a video on social media showing Keith giving Lainey a ride to the airport as her “Country’s Cool Again” tour headed to Australia.

During the commute, Keith helps calm Lainey’s nerves and gives her some insight as to what she can expect from the country in which he was raised. He warns her about the country’s infamous encounters with snakes and spiders and makes sure she packed all the essentials.

When they arrive at the airport, Lainey says, “I’m so excited to be going to your home,” to which Keith responds, “Honestly? I wish I could go home with you,” followed by a playful suggestion of turning it into a song title.

“Go Home W U” by Keith Urban and Lainey Wilson is out now!

As it turns out, the rumors were true! Lainey Wilson and Keith Urban dropped their brand new duet “Go Home W U” today, May 3rd.

Keith told the Tennessean that the song, which he describes as an “up-tempo, fuzzy good feelings towards all friends and strangers song,” was not originally intended to be a duet. However, when a friend suggested that it would work better as a pairing, he though that Lainey would be a perfect fit for the style of the music.

Lainey Wilson reflected:

“Keith has been someone in the industry I’ve taken notes from for a while now. From watching him at CMA Fest every year growing up to hearing the way he treats people up and down Music Row, he has taught me a lot. He’s a genuine supporter of mine, and I am honored I get to continue to learn from one of the best. Getting to do a song with Keith is a notch on my belt I am very proud of.”
