Keith Urban and Lainey Wilson on “Go Home W U”
Lainey Wilson and Keith Urban spoke about their collaboration in a joint statement. “I wrote ‘Go Home W U’ in 2020 with BRELAND, Sam Sumser, and Sean Small. We had a blast writing it,” Urban recalled. “It started as a late-night drum loop, I grabbed a bass guitar and started playing a simple recurring bass line. Before we knew it, we were writing a chorus that could be sung by any drunk person in any bar anywhere in the world,” he added.
“A friend of mine suggested the idea of making the song a duet and I immediately thought of Lainey,” he said of the decision to add Wilson to the song. “Besides the fact that I love her voice, she’s got the swagger and attitude that fit so well with the song,” he explained.
“Keith has been someone in the industry I’ve taken notes from for a while now,” Wilson said. “From watching him at CMA Fest every year growing up to hearing the way he treats people up and down music row. He has taught me a lot. He’s a genuine supporter of mine and I am honored to get to continue to learn from one of the best,” she added. “Getting to do a song with Keith is a notch on my belt I am very proud of.”
