“A Revolver In The Field”: Andrew Adkins Fires a Shot at Time

Article Contributed by gratefulweb | Published on Friday, August 8, 2025

Grateful Web is delighted to debut Nashville singer-songwriter Andrew Adkins’ evocative new single, “A Revolver In The Field,” arriving on all platforms August 8, 2025. The track—written, produced, and performed entirely in Adkins’ East Nashville home studio—ushers listeners into a widescreen meditation on aging, reckoning, and renewal. Cinematic layers of serpentine guitars coil around sonorous organs and thunderous, echo-laden drums, while a jubilant choir lifts the chorus skyward, giving the song the sweep of a midnight Western scored by gospel spirits.

 

Lyrically, Adkins stands in the thin pasture between past and future, staring down youthful mistakes and hard-earned triumphs with equal parts grit and grace. By the final refrain, the darkness cracks just enough to reveal possibility—proof that even the heaviest memories can point the way forward. It’s a stirring preview of his forthcoming full-length, Superior Vena Cava (out September 12, 2025), and the second single to surface from the project.

 

For more than a dozen years, Adkins has carried his songs from dimly lit clubs to festival main stages across the United States, sharing bills with the likes of Sturgill Simpson, Lainey Wilson, Cage the Elephant, Little Big Town, and the late Billy Joe Shaver. His music’s cinematic undercurrent has made him a sought-after source for film and television placements, with credits stretching from Netflix and Hulu to MTV, Paramount+, and Lionsgate Films. That same storyteller’s eye infuses “A Revolver In The Field,” where every reverberant drum hit feels like a footfall on dusty ground and every layered vocal suggests a ghostly chorus urging the narrator onward.

 

I wanted it to sound like dusk on an open plain,” Adkins says. “A moment when the weight of what’s behind you meets the wild promise of what’s ahead.”
