Rolling Stones fans in Chicago got a special treat this weekend when one of today’s biggest country music stars joined the legendary band onstage.

On Sunday, June 30, the iconic rock group recruited Lainey Wilson to perform their 1971 track “Dead Flowers” with them at Soldier Field. The show marked the Stones' second time performing the country-inspired record on their latest tour after tapping singer-songwriter Tyler Childers to sing along with them in Orlando on June 3.

In fan-captured footage posted on YouTube, Wilson, 32, is seen onstage with the Stones wearing bedazzled chaps, a varsity jacket and a black cowboy hat as frontman Mick Jagger, 80, queued up his guitar to kick off the song’s first verse.

After harmonizing with the leading rocker on the chorus, the “Watermelon Moonshine” singer took hold of the second verse, singing, “Well, when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac / Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day / I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon / And another girl can take my pain away.”

Following the joint performance, the Stones raved about “another incredible night in Chicago” in an Instagram recap post, thanking fans for coming out and giving a “special thanks to @laineywilson for joining on Dead Flowers 🥀.”

Wilson returned the gesture in her own post, where she bragged about sharing the stage with the rock legends.

“I got to hang out with rockstars of all rockstars last night,” the country musician wrote in a caption alongside a series of photos and videos. “@mickjagger @officialkeef @ronniewood @therollingstones - you are legendary to say the least. What a treat, what an honor, what a night!! Wow. 🤯🤘🌸.”

Early in June, Wilson shared her disbelief over her opening slot on the Stones’ tour in an interview with Country 102.5, saying, “Can you believe that? I am getting to play a show with the Rolling Stones. Yep, they are gonna have to roll me up out of there 'cause that is absolutely insane.”

The Bell Bottom Country artist — who’s set to release her next studio album, Whirlwind, on Aug. 23 — also recalled meeting the legendary rockers in Nashville around 2016/2017 and recalled thinking, “‘I might not ever get a chance to see them again.'”

Fast forward to just before their Chicago performance, the singer told the radio station what she hoped to tell the group when they came face-to-face. “I might have the chance to meet them and tell them how much the Rolling Stones have meant to country music and music in general,” she shared. “I can’t believe I am getting to share a stage with them. Mick Jagger is going to show me some new moves.”

The Stones are currently on their Hackney Diamonds stadium tour, which kicked off in Houston on April 28, in support of their 24th studio album of the same name. The trio are set to conclude their road run at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Wednesday, July 17.
