Earlier this week, Adell surprised fans on socials with the announcement of her summer 2025 tour, The Giddy Up, Gorgeous Tour. Presented by official whisky partner Crown Royal, the tour will hit seven cities across the country including major markets like Nashville, Atlanta and Houston. This marks the second year of partnership between Adell and Crown Royal, who first teamed up during her breakout 2024 The Buckle Bunny Tour, which sold out within minutes of public onsale. Tickets for The Giddy Up, Gorgeous Tour are on sale now and can be purchased at bucklebunny.us. "I can't wait to see all the Bunnies on The Giddy Up, Gorgeous Tour this summer!” expressed Adell. “It's not just about playing songs…it's about sharing stories, energy and real moments with the people who've been riding with me since day one. Crown Royal has also been with me since the beginning, so they were the perfect fit to continue this journey with. Pack your boots, your glitter and your heartbreak — this tour's about to be a full-blown emotional rodeo."

“Snakeskin” follows her previous release “Going Blonde,” her most vulnerable song yet. Written alone by Adell on a Nashville barstool, “Going Blonde” digs into the impact of Adell's adoption at birth to show a new side of the fearless talent. Revealing the discovery that made her who she is, “Going Blonde” brings new color to a distinctive country artist, who now wears her hair blonde in tribute to the mother she never got to meet – and to the woman she has become. Watch the accompanying music video here. “Going Blonde” marks Adell's first release of 2025, following a banner year of career milestones. Deemed one of seven artists shaping the sound of 2024 by The New York Times with over 200M global streams and counting, the 2025 People Artist to Watch checked many items off her bucket list with a sold-out headlining tour, a collaboration with superstar Beyoncé, recognition from The New York Times, Billboard, NPR, Teen Vogue and more while bringing her patented brand of fierce femininity to the biggest domestic and international festivals. This year, she continues to solidify her place in the pop-country space, performing at the GLAAD Awards, presenting at Billboard Women In Music and touring at major festivals including Lollapalooza this summer.
