Gavin Adcock Criticizes Zach Bryan Over His Response to Fan’s Online Complaint: ‘Still Don’t Know How To Treat Fans’
The two artists have had a lengthy feud.
It looks as if there is still bad blood between Zach Bryan and Gavin Adcock.
The two artists have had a lengthy feud, one that previously almost turned into a physical fight between the two singers last year. Though the two have not had much to say about each other on social media in recent months, Adcock has spoken out after Bryan received backlash from some fans online.
On April 25, Bryan’s show in Nebraska had to be cut short due to weather, after which he took to social media and apologized to fans. He also posted the setlist, showing that only about six songs had to be cut from the set.
Some fans expressed their disappointment online. One commenter wrote on X, “Partial refunds need to be given…I know a lot of this was out of your control but we got half a show. Very disappointing.” Bryan responded to the commenter, writing, “Karen ahhh tweet.”
Another commenter on X lashed out at Bryan for that response, writing, “What a scum response to a fan who probably waited all night to see you and the opening artists, I paid over a thousand dollars to see this show and waited in my car for over 4 hours. Minimal communication by the stadium and Zach Bryan himself. Ridiculous.” Bryan responded with the same message, “Karen ahhh tweet.”
Adcock commented on a Billboard Country Instagram post about the situation, writing of Bryan, “Still don’t know how to treat fans.”
The public animosity between Bryan and Adcock began last year, after a fan (who later asserted they were a teenager) expressed disappointment after Bryan did not take a photo with them during his three-night run of shows at MetLife Stadium. Bryan responded in a TikTok, writing, “You’re not entitled after someone plays two and a half hours to a picture or a hello,” and adding the expletive acronym “GOMD.” Adcock then criticized Bryan during an appearance on Rolling Stone‘s Nashville Now podcast, characterizing Bryan’s response as disrespectful toward the young fan. “It wasn’t about not wanting to sign autographs after a show, it’s like letting a 14-year-old kid rant, without saying, ‘get off my d–k.’ You’re bigger than that,” Adcock said.
Last September, video showed Bryan scaling a fence at Oklahoma’s Born & Raised Festival and confronting Adcock, as people separated the two.
In March 2026, Bryan launched his With Heaven On Tour, in support of his new album With Heaven On Top. The album also features the single “Plastic Cigarette.”
Adcock just released his new project Country Never Dies, a collection of cover versions of classic songs from artists including Waylon Jennings, George Jones, Johnny Cash and more legendary artists. He will launch his The Day I Hang It Up Tour in May.
