Rolling in the Deep


"Rolling in the Deep" by Adele is the lead single and opening track from her 2011 album 21. Described by Adele herself as a "dark blues-y gospel disco tune," the song blends soulful intensity with driving rhythm, making it a compelling study for electric guitar players. Its strong chord progressions and dynamic feel offer guitarists a chance to explore blues-influenced phrasing and rhythmic groove rooted in gospel and soul traditions.

  • The song was co-written by Adele and producer Paul Epworth, whose collaboration shaped its distinctive dark, gospel-driven energy.
  • Adele described it as a 'dark blues-y gospel disco tune' — a useful style reference when crafting your guitar tone and phrasing.
  • Released in 2010 as the lead single from 21, it became one of the biggest crossover hits in the US since 1985.
