The newly-released anthem captures Wilson’s free-spirited, yet driven and hard-working character. The reigning Country Music Association Entertainer of the Year teased “Can’t Sit Still” earlier this year, directing social media followers to a website where they could hear a preview of the song before its release.
“When I hear the words ‘Can’t Sit Still,’ I think of me,” Wilson said with a laugh in a Ford promo that featured the song last month. “I would say it’s one of my qualities that I feel like has been one of the things that’s got me where I’m at. …When it comes to songwriting, and getting creative and things like that, it’s always important for me to try to be one step ahead. This job will keep you moving.
“My friends would describe me as a suitcase with legs,” the self-proclaimed “workhorse” continued. “I never really thought that you could be in, like, 10 different places at once, but somehow we make it happen.”
“Can’t Sit Still” follows Wilson’s latest studio album, Whirlwind, which she released in 2024 and expanded into a 19-track deluxe album in 2025.
