Tanner Adell became the first female country artist to perform during the Black Entertainment Television (BET) Awards on Sunday (June 30), where she debuted her latest single, “Cowboy Break My Heart.”
Written by Adell, Akil “Worldwidefresh” King, Stephen “Di Genius” McGregor, Will Weatherly and Anthony Germaine White, “Cowboy Break My Heart” marks her first release since signing a record deal with Love Renaissance (LVRN) in Atlanta.
“This song is simply a bop,” she stated. “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.”
The tune follows her Twisters: The Album track, “Too Easy,” and her “Drunk In Love (Apple Music Sessions)” cover. Additionally, the 2024 CMT Next Women of Country artist also made her Billboard Hot 100 debut earlier this year with her “Blackbiird” collaboration featured on Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter collection.
Additionally, Adell will perform during Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks Show, airing at 7:00 p.m. CT on NBC and Peacock, and is slated to appear at various festivals, including Faster Horses, GoldenSky and Ridin’ Hearts.
