Gavin Adcock and Zach Bryan have had a pretty complicated relationship over the past year. Still, Adcock's latest comments suggest there may be more to their story than another round of country music beef.

During a recent appearance on the Bobby Bones Show, Bones floated the idea of the two singers eventually making a song together, telling Adcock he doesn't think a collaboration is “out of the realm of possibility.”

Adcock's response was hardly a confirmation, but he didn't exactly rule it out, either.

Gavin Wasn't Looking for a Zach Connection

Adcock explained that his criticism of Bryan was never motivated by a desire to work with him someday.

“I don’t know. I really just didn’t like the way he was treating those people, and I just called him out on it,” he said.

The 27-year-old singer said plenty of artists might hesitate to call out a major star if they hope to eventually get a spot on a show or record a song together. That wasn't his approach.

A lot of people don’t call out big stars because they want to possibly get up under their wing or like do a show with them or do a song with them. And that’s just not my mindset, you know?

Adcock also said he “really hopes” Bryan is doing better after the chaotic situation that unfolded at Born & Raised Festival last year.

“I really hope the guy's doing better, ’cause it seemed like he was in a really terrible spot there for a while,” he said. “I mean, I think that situation kind of put his feet on the ground.”

So, Could They Actually Make a Song?

Bones wasn't ready to let the collaboration idea go. After continuing to suggest that a song between the two could happen someday, he got a more intriguing response from Adcock: “We’ll see.”
