CMA Fest Spotlight: Adam Doleac

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WDEF) — Country music artist Adam Doleac is staying busy this summer, cranking out lots of new music.

News 12 caught up with him at CMA Fest, right after he released his latest song about his wife, “Biggest Fan.”

“She’s always telling me – it’s kind of a joke between us – that she’s my biggest fan,” Doleac said. “The more fans that I get out there, she always says, ‘No, I’m still your biggest fan.’ This song is just me kind of saying, ‘Well, I’m yours too. You know, if you were on stage every night, I’d be in the front row and I’d be waiting backstage and all that stuff,’ so just a reminder of that.”

Adam just wrapped up his first headline tour earlier this year.

He says it was exciting, selling out more shows than they didn’t sell out.

In addition to performing, Adam is passionate about writing the songs he sings on stage – even for other artists.

He’s written for several, including Darius Rucker, Lainey Wilson, and even the Tennessee Valley’s Kane Brown.

Adam says Brown is one of the first people he met in Nashville.

He wrote “Pull It Off” for Kane back in 2016, which was his first cut as a songwriter.

“I love getting to be a part of other people’s records,” Doleac said. “I wrote one for [Nate Smith] on his last record. There’s one on the Dan and Shay record coming out, Gabby Barrett, and some of these artists that I’ve gotten to kind of sneak on their records. It’s always really fun. If I had to pick, I’m going to sing it myself, but it’s a pretty even fight between what I love more, you know, I love both sides of it.”

And now seven years later after his song for Kane, Adam says he already has plenty of other new songs up his sleeve for himself.

“I think we’re going to put a new song out every six weeks for the rest of the year, so we have a lot of new music coming. Album two is, I know we just finished album one, but album two’s already probably almost halfway done, so it’s coming,” Doleac said. “I just know that we’re going to do song after song after song, and then hopefully one of those things gets rolling up a chart somewhere, and we’ll put the full record out kind of behind that.”
