Lainey Wilson‘s friendship with Jelly Roll is a very special one, to say the least. The country stars and labelmates are two of the most powerful voices in the country genre and what brought them even closer was their now first-ever No. 1 hit together, “Save Me.”

“I love my Jelly. I’m telling you right now. I don’t think I’ve met anybody who don’t love Jelly. And if you don’t love Jelly, something’s wrong with you,” Wilson expressed to Kelly Ford on Backstage Country.

The song, which was originally featured on Jelly Roll’s 2020 album, Self Medicated, was re-released on his 2023 album, Whisitt Chapel, with Wilson. The newest arrangement of “Save Me” has even garnered them a nomination for Music Event of The Year at the upcoming 2024 ACM Awards on May 16.

“I’m proud to be in this generation of country music with him. It’s so important that we add Jelly to the mix. I mean, he’s he’s got a story and at the end of the day, he’s connecting with people who feel like they have not had a voice in a long time, if ever. And so that’s pretty special,” Wilson said.

She continued, “I’ve been a fan of the song ‘Save Me’ for a long time because he had put it out a while before he asked me to be on it. I think it’s so cool that you kind of get to hear it from both a man’s perspective and a woman’s perspective. It’s a really powerful song. It stood the test of time. I feel like this song has had a lot of different lives. I’m very thankful that I got to experience one of those.”

Jelly Roll’s “Save Me” was his third consecutive top-charting single last year, following “Son Of A Sinner” and “Need A Favor.”

Wilson will hit the road next month for her headlining 2024 Country’s Cool Again Tour with supporting acts Jackson Dean, Ian Munsick, and Zach Top while Jelly Roll’s headlining 2024 The Beautifully Broken Tour kicks off in August with Warren Zeiders and Alexandra Kay.
