Zach Bryan's Drunken Antics Disrupt Born & Raised Festival

In September 2025, a feud between country music stars Zach Bryan and Gavin Adcock escalated at the Born & Raised Festival in Pryor, Oklahoma. According to Adcock, Bryan was "drunk as hell" and "throwing up in trash cans" throughout the day, even approaching other artists and "treating them like shit."

Adcock claims he was warned that Bryan might try to "start some shit" to prevent him from performing. When the two confronted each other backstage, Adcock says he told Bryan he didn't want to fight, but Bryan "kept coming at" him. Ultimately, Adcock decided to focus on delivering a "rowdiest, most badass show" rather than engaging in a physical altercation.

The incident that angered Adcock the most was when Bryan made a guest appearance during singer-songwriter Gabriella Rose's set to perform their duet "Madeline." Adcock criticized Bryan for taking advantage of Rose's moment and repeatedly shouting "Yeah, Gavin Adcock" during the song.

The feud between the two country artists appears to be ongoing, with Adcock previously stating that he sees Bryan as someone who "puts on a big mask" and can't always "help but rip it off and show his true colors."
