The song drops ahead of his new record on August 15th
Country music firebrand Gavin Adcock will release his sophomore record, Own Worst Enemy, on Friday (Aug 15th) via Adcock’s Thrivin’ Here Records LLC under exclusive license to Warner Music Nashville. In anticipation of the project, Adcock surprises his fans with the release of a new song, “Light A Fire.”
“Over the last four years I’ve spent my life writing, traveling and trying to find time to breathe. It doesn’t always add up on paper like it would seem, but through the happiness, hard times and self-destruction, I’ve found that the best part of my job is letting out music for my fans. I can’t thank y’all enough for sticking with me for this long. I’m the furthest thing from perfect and I don’t ever plan to be,” Adcock shares.
He continues, “My inspiration for my new album comes from personal experiences and experiences of people around me. I interact with a bunch of different people, and I get to see their side of their life story as well. I just try to take inspiration from real-life things and real-life situations that have brought me to today.”
Adcock conveys his raw, unfiltered, and unapologetic approach to country music on Own Worst Enemy. Arriving just a year after his record-breaking label debut album, Actin’ Up Again, the new, 24-track project delivers on Adcock’s relentless consistency to provide new music to his loyal fan base. Two swaggering tracks from the new project – “Outside Dog” and “Tall Tales” – are included on the Madden NFL 26 Soundtrack, arriving tomorrow (Thurs, Aug 14th).
Additionally, Adcock’s releases thus far have pushed the rebel-rouser over the billion global streams mark in addition to recently receiving four RIAA certification plaques for “A Cigarette,” which is platinum, and “Run Your Mouth,” “Deep End,” and “Four Leaf Clover,” all gold.
Adcock is currently on his headline Need To Tour, which kicked off in May and includes entirely sold-out dates across Canada this October. He continues to support select dates of Morgan Wallen’s I’m The Problem Tour, including upcoming performances at Rogers Centre in Toronto, Ontario, on September 4-5.
