Country star Gavin Adcock lived up to his song title when he fell off the stage during a performance of Deep End this week in Canada. The singer was performing shirtless at Winnipeg’s Burton Cummings Theatre when he accidentally tumbled into the audience mid-chorus.

Fan-shot footage shows Adcock pacing toward the edge of the stage while singing the line “And I’ve been keeping up with the demons of this world,” before suddenly stumbling and disappearing from view. The crowd gasped, but moments later he popped back up, grinning and still singing. Even as he lost his cowboy hat, Adcock didn’t lose his sense of humour, belting out the lyric “Yeah, I’m off the deep end” as if it were part of the act.

The clip quickly spread across TikTok, with fans joking that he took the song title “a little too literally.” One fan captioned their video, “@GavinAdcockMusic hope you’re good after that fall, few too many,” to which Adcock replied, “It happens,” punctuated with two shaka emojis.

The country singer hasn’t publicly commented in depth on the fall but did poke fun at himself days later, sharing a slow-motion clip of him sliding across a stage with the caption, “How I move towards the fridge for 1 more after my girlfriend says I’ve had too much.” The video, set to his own song Last One to Know, read simply, “Let me live.”

Adcock is currently in the middle of his Need To Tour, which will take him through Texas, Georgia, North Carolina, Las Vegas and Florida before wrapping up in December. He’s also slated to perform at Stagecoach 2026 in Indio, California, alongside Cody Johnson, Post Malone, Lainey Wilson, Pitbull, Journey and Bush.

The fall comes only months after Adcock’s name surfaced in controversy for criticising Beyoncé’s foray into country music, claiming during a June show that her tracks weren’t “real country.” Despite the backlash, his third album Own Worst Enemy, released in August, has maintained strong streaming numbers.

For now, Adcock seems unfazed by both criticism and gravity, reminding fans that sometimes the best way to handle a tumble is simply to laugh it off.
