Last night, country music star Tanner Adell became the first female country artist to appear on the BET Awards, and debuted her surprise new single “Cowboy Break My Heart.”
Today, Adell has shared the official studio version of “Cowboy Break My Heart,” ensuring that she will continue to remain at the forefront of mainstream country conversations.
“This song is simply a bop,” said Adell. “Though it is a track I want my fans to have fun with, I think it also shows how powerful heartbreak can be and how it doesn’t go away just like that. This guy – who was a massive Dallas Cowboys fan, hence the title – did some damage to my heart, but it led to some great songs of mine like ‘I Hate Texas’ and ‘Whiskey Blues.’ Safe to say I’ll be leaving that ‘Cowboy’ in the past, but what an empowering moment to be able to debut the song on the BET Awards stage.”
Listen to “Cowboy Break My Heart” now below.
Written by Adell, Akil “worldwidefresh” King, Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor, Will Weatherly and Anthony Germaine White, “Cowboy Break My Heart” marks Adell’s first song release since signing with LVRN Records. The visualizer was captured this past weekend ahead of her BET Awards performance. It comes on the heels of her 2024 Twisters soundtrack feature, “Too Easy,” with NYLON listing the “beer-spilling, booty-shaking female Country-pop crossover” as one of the best songs of the week, while UPROXX proclaimed “Tanner Adell is bound to be the voice of the Country music landscape.” Adells’ first release of the year, “Whiskey Blues,” shined on The Jennifer Hudson Show in May as Adell’s broadcast TV performance debut, pairing the song with her viral Country/hip-hop slammer hit “Buckle Bunny.”
