Adam is a singer/songwriter with roots that delve deep into the classical music culture. He spent seven years at North Carolina School of the Arts on a long journey through high school and college, which culminated in a Bachelor of Music degree in Guitar Performance.

After graduating, he moved to New York City where he taught music and guitar lessons at a small school in Queens, New York. While in New York, Adam immersed himself in the culture offered by the city and reveled in the arts that have continuously influenced him. After three years, he returned to North Carolina, laying down roots in the Charlotte area.

Adam's playing style is an eclectic mix of multiple elements that have inspired him. His classical training is well represented in his songs with intricate fingerstyle patterns and moving melodies. This is fused with his love and appreciation for acoustic sounds combined with electric impressions. His utilization of effects pedals and instrument looping adds a unique dimension to the acoustic guitar and his sound. He has long admired the work of Leonard Cohen, Nick Drake, and Jeff Buckley. Currently, influential artists include Damien Rice, Alexi Murdoch, and Pedestrian.
