Tanner Adell Talks Leaving LDS, Beyoncé, Buckle Bunny and New Single “Going Blonde”
from Zach Sang Show
Tanner Adell defies categorization. Raised between Wyoming and So-Cal in a Mormon household, this 28-year-old, bi-racial, country-loving singer who also embraces the syncopation and sass of hip-hop, moved to Nashville to make it, but not before she’d completed her LDS mission in Sweden. Nowadays she’s making waves not only with hits like ‘Buckle Bunny’ and ‘Trailer Park Barbie,’ but also as one of the harmonizing voices on Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter renditions of ‘Blackbirrd’ and ‘Ameriican Requiem.’’ We talk about all this, plus her Rodeo queen mom, her experience with LDS and leaving the church, her scrappy, DIY beginnings, and embracing her pansexuality. We also get into the story behind her latest single ‘Going Blonde’ — an incredibly moving ode to her birth mother. Oh, and we try to give her buddy Shaquille O’Neal a call.
