Lainey Wilson's Speeding Tale

0:00On April 22nd, Laney Wilson dropped a wild story on John Mayer's serious XM show, Life With John Mayer. At 15 years old, she got nailed for speeding 75 miles per hour in a 45 zone, back in her tiny hometown of Baskin, Louisiana, population just 250. That judge turned out to be her next-door neighbor, which says everything about how small that place is. No free pass, though, she still had to face some real consequences for that ticket. She ended up writing a whole song about the incident right then and there, something like going 75 in a 45. On the show, she even sang a quick snippet for Mayer, and man, it sounded smooth coming from her. Fans are buzzing about it online, loving the glimpse into her early creative spark from such a random teenage mishap. It's classic Laney, turning trouble into tunes. Too bad she made it clear that track's staying locked away. No album features or singles coming from it anytime soon. It's a fun memory from her wild youth.
