"Trailblazer" debuted at the Academy of Country Music Awards, with lyrics honoring the careers of Lainey Wilson, Miranda Lambert and Reba McEntire.

Last year, McEntire premiered her single “I Can’t” at the ACM Awards and took the stage with Lambert at 2024’s Stagecoach. “I’d love to tour with Miranda. I love her sassiness and her fun energy and I love her music, so you bet — that’d be a great tour,” she told Variety.

Shortly after taking the stage to give her three-way collaboration with Reba McEntire and Miranda Lambert, “Trailblazer,” its live debut, Lainey Wilson was called back up to the mic at the 2025 ACM Awards when Blake Shelton revealed that she was the evening’s big winner, nabbing the entertainer of the year award.
