During his set at the Faster Horses festival on Friday (July 19), Jelly Roll welcomed country and CCM singer-songwriter Anne Wilson as a surprise, last-minute guest to sing the “Save Me” collaboration. Together, they infused the gospel-tinged song with an extra shot of urgency and fervor.

“Lainey Wilson couldn't be here tonight but I'd like to welcome to the stage one of the greatest people I've ever met and her name is Miss Anne Wilson,” Jelly Roll told the audience as Anne began to sing the lead part in 'Save Me', drawing cheers from the packed festival audience.
Wilson, who recently won her last five Advertising sign Christian Airplay's “Strong” hit shared a video of the experience on TikTok, captioning it, “When Jelly Roll asks you at the last minute to sing with him and you say YES!”
Lainey Wilson also took to TikTok to give her blessing to Anne's rendition of her part in the song, writing, “My Wilson girl. I love you. Keep shining that LIGHT as you are.”
