Lainey Wilson‘s rise to music stardom will be celebrated with an upcoming exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville. The collection is titled, Lainey Wilson: Tough as Nails, and it is set to open on July 18. The exhibit will delve into the Louisiana native’s personal and professional journey as well as her award-winning career in music, where she originated “bell bottom country.” The collection will feature a series of highlights from throughout Wilson’s life, including her iconic Western style, childhood memorabilia, and journal entries that reflect her ambitious teenage aspirations to become a country singer/songwriter. The exhibition will run until June 20, 2026, and follows a previous exhibition at the Country Music Hall of Fame, Luke Combs: The Man I Am, and will be shown alongside the ongoing Dolly Parton: Journey of a Seeker exhibit. Opening weekend kicks off with a special songwriter round featuring Wilson’s co-writers Jon Decious and Aaron Raitiere. (Holler)
