After performing her latest single “Heart Like a Truck” on the CMT Music Awards this weekend—and taking home Female Video Of The Year for the tune—Lainey Wilson is celebrating the track hitting No. 1 on country radio.

“Heart Like a Truck” jumped two spots on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart, marking Wilson’s third No. 1 hit. Wilson co-wrote the song with Trannie Anderson and Dallas Wilson, and it appears on her Bell Bottom Country album.

The track adds to Wilson’s growing arsenal of hits, which also include the Platinum-certified “Things A Man Oughta Know” and “Never Say Never” with Cole Swindell. Wilson is also climbing the charts with Hardy on their dark collaboration, “Wait In The Truck.” Her “Smell Like Smoke,” which was originally featured on Yellowstone, recently hit No. 1 on SiriusXM The Highway’s Hot 30 weekend countdown.

In addition to her success at radio, Wilson has completed a 28-date sold-out headlining tour, been honored as Billboard’s Women in Music’s 2023 Rulebreaker and started touring stadiums with Luke Combs as support on his world tour this year.
