Multi-platinum, GRAMMY® Award-winning artist LeAnn Rimes has released her powerful new single, “Wild Things Run,” inspired by her character Dixie Bennings ABC’s drama series, 9-1-1: Nashville, from Executive Producers Ryan Murphy, Rashad Raisani and Tim Minear and produced by 20th Television. The song, available now across all digital platforms, underscores a pivotal montage in the series and offers fans a deeper look into Dixie’s backstory, revealing the fearless spirit and vulnerability that shaped her. “Wild Things Run” is featured in this week’s return episode of 9-1-1: Nashville, airing Thursday, 2/26 at 9:00p.m. ET/PT on ABC, Stream on Hulu.
Written and produced by Rimes alongside her longtime friend, collaborator, and hitmaker Darrell Brown, “Wild Things Run” captures the raw essence of youth: reckless hope, conviction, and the fire that fuels becoming.
Rimes shares of the personal creative process, saying:
“When I read that scene in 9-1-1: Nashville, I could feel Dixie at twenty so clearly, who she was before the world shaped her. That edge, the wild belief, the innocence and fire all at once. The title Wild Things Run just came to me after sitting with the script. After talking with Rashad [Raisani] about what he wanted the song to emotionally convey in the montage, it just poured out. And when I went in to record young Dixie’s vocal after the scene was filmed, I softened my voice, took out most of the bottom end to make it sound a bit younger, which brought the whole scene to life for me.”
The single further blurs the line between Rimes’ artistry and her on-screen presence, marking a standout creative moment as music and storytelling collide.
“Wild Things Run” is available now on all streaming platforms. For more information on Rimes, please visit www.leannrimes.com.
