2 Illinois-Born Country Stars Team Up for New Netflix Song
Just in the past few years, we've had some of the hottest up-and-coming country talent from the Land of Lincoln, and now two of those stars are teaming up for a duet.
Two Illinois Natives Join Forces on New Country Song
Two country stars with Illinois roots teamed up for a new song that will be featured in a popular Netflix series later this week.
Bailey Zimmerman, who grew up in Louisville, Illinois, and Stella Lefty, a native of Wilmette, are joining forces for a duet called "My Kinda Love."
Zimmerman shared a video on his Instagram page featuring himself and Stella singing together, and the clip gave fans a preview of the collaboration while teasing an October 23, 2026, release date for the song. "My Kinda Love" is set to be featured in season 3 of "Nobody Wants This" on Netflix, with the show scheduled to premiere on Thursday, October 22, just a day before the song debuts.
