“Ha-ooh-hoo”: Lainey Wilson and Brooks & Dunn have teamed for a new rocking, ZZ Top-inspired version of “Play Something Country.”

It’s the first preview of Brooks & Dunn’s REBOOT II, a star-studded tribute album that’ll feature collabs with Morgan Wallen, Megan Moroney, Jelly Roll, Riley Green, Hailey Whitters, HARDY, ERNEST, Corey Kent and more.

“Lainey was one of the first artists to get in the studio with us for this project,” says the duo’s Kix Brooks. “She came head-to-toe in flames, bell-bottoms and all, and added that Louisiana swagger like only she could. This was a fun one!”

“I don’t know anybody in this town, in this generation of country music, who could say that these guys are not influences on what they do,” adds Lainey. “They were the soundtrack to my childhood, so I was excited to make some magic with them.”

You can watch a behind-the-scenes clip of Brooks & Dunn and Lainey’s recording process now on YouTube.

REBOOT II arrives Nov. 15 and is available for preorder and presave now.
