ONE MAN AND HIS BOX

About Me


Hello, my name is Adam and I like to make beautiful music with wonderful people. My first instrument was a 24 key CASIO mini-keyboard from argos at the tender age of 6 and things just sort of rolled on from there. I have played in many bands, on many instruments, with many people over the (many) years and I'm still loving every second of it.
The guitar/voice combo was always my weapon of choice, until I discovered a serious passion for the 'Cajon', a flamenco box drum with a metal snare mounted inside. I just love to lay down the groove and let my comrades paint over the top....
I am currently one half of acoustic groove band NEWRISING. Click on the logo to go to the myspace. We've spent the past few months locked in the studio, working tirelessly on the debut album. We will be playing a lot of shows this year so do ya'self a favour and get yourself along to one!
I am also playing with ambient/folk band Solace. Click on the logo to go to the myspace. We have just finished a demo EP and should be rinsing the festivals this year. Its new-age at its very best!
All the gigs are listed at the top of the page, so turn off your computer and come along and see us - live music needs your support. Take care of yourselves and remember to spread those good vibrations!
Peace & Love.
P.S. Here's a little vid of me jamming with Joe (Solace), enjoy!

Influences: This moment is my influence, one single moment time after time. The systematic removal of all non-essential repetition is my infuence, freedom to perceive. You are my influence, as I am you and you are everything. Love is my influence, a path with a heart. Death is my influence, my oldest and closest companion.
Plus these guys....
....and many, many more.
