Adam Mac shakes the country music scene, embracing its forward progression to introduce an artist never before seen in the genre. Confidence exudes from Mac, as he shares his unapologetic anthems detailing his journey to becoming the person he is today, after many heartaches. Born Adam Mcphaill in small-town Russellville, KY, he was raised on ‘90s country and gospel music, often being bribed by his mother to sing during Sunday service. His sound has also been heavily influenced by pop legends such as Michael Jackson and Amy Winehouse, who changed the trajectory of his style and desire to perform. Mac had always had a love of words and poems growing up, but not until the passing of his best childhood friend at 18 did he learn the power of songwriting. It wasn’t long after that he packed up and moved to Nashville.
After finding his footing in Music City, Mac has had a series of successes in his career since. The music video for fan-favorite track “Disco Cowboy” premiered exclusively with CMT and went on to take the No. 1 spot on CMT’s 12 Pack Countdown for 4 weeks. Additional releases include “New Vibration” and “Take Myself Home,” which both earned high praise from People Country. With a refreshing sound and evocative lyrics, Adam continues to resonate with fans on a personal level, which was evident in his viral TikTok that featured a snippet of his unreleased song “Boy Like Me.” The emotional tribute to his mom received over 200K views in less than 24 hours.
Infusing his rural Kentucky roots with grit, soul and blues to create a sound that is uniquely his own, it is clear that Mac has carved out his own space in the country genre with a bright future on the horizon.
