Tonight | Take 5 with Zan Rowe on ABC: Lainey Wilson shares the songs that keep her grounded – Take 5 with Zan Rowe airs tonight on ABC. Lainey Wilson joins Zan Rowe to explain five songs connected to her small-town roots and global country music career.
Wilson has become one of country music’s brightest new stars. Her heartfelt songs, distinctive style and Southern charm have helped her sell out arenas and collect major recognition, while her breakthrough acting role in Yellowstone introduced her to another audience.
For viewers following Take 5 with Zan Rowe, the episode has a clear point of pressure. The five-song format gives Wilson room to connect public success with private memory. Rather than presenting a simple career summary, the conversation uses music to show which people, places and values stayed with her as the scale of her work changed. It is a personal route into the story behind the awards and arena shows.
What happens in Take 5 with Zan Rowe?
Beneath that success is a childhood in Baskin, Louisiana. Zan asks Wilson to choose five songs that keep her grounded, and her first selection returns to an upbringing shaped by bonfires, front porches and the storytelling woven into everyday life.
Wilson’s first choice places her childhood community at the centre of the conversation. The remaining selections can then show how that foundation continued to matter as her audience, opportunities and public profile grew.
