Fast-rising country music star Gavin Adcock is scheduled to make his first Salem Civic Center appearance on Friday, August 29. Tickets go on sale this Friday, February 7, at 10 a.m.
The Georgia native was born and raised in the town of Watkinsville, and he played football at Georgia Southern. Adcock grew up working on his family cattle farm and dreamed of playing football riding bulls professionally. But an injury changed his path to music.
He started writing songs in high school, but it wasn’t until the spring of 2021, when he injured his knee playing football, that he used his time healing to record and release his first original single. Since then, he has put all focus into his music and has released multiple singles that have now amassed over 600 million US streams collectively.
The song, “A Cigarette,” is at more than 125 million streams and counting. His debut major label album, “Actin’ Up Again”, was released in August of 2024 and was the most streamed country debut album of the year with over 350 million streams to date. He has sold over 100,000 tickets between the two legs of the highly successful “Actin’ Up Again” tour which runs from the fall of 2024 until spring of 2025.
Adcock plans to continue igniting Country music and his new song “Need To” that comes out this Friday. The new song, with its clever, but honest, lyrics and hypnotic cadence, showcases Adcock’s signature vocal prowess and captivating delivery, solidifying his position as a formidable force in contemporary country music.
The mark that Adcock has made across the music business landscape with his own style of Country music, high-energy raucous live show, and won’t-back-down demeanor has become nothing short of astonishing. Over the course of 12 months, Adcock’s album, “Actin’ Up Again,” was crowned the largest major-label country debut from a solo male artist released in 2024, and with more than 15 million on-demand U.S. streams week of release, Actin’ Up Again was also 2024’s top streaming major-label debut across the whole genre.
