About Me

Reviews for the debut EP, In The Name of Liberty :

"In the Name of Liberty is a cool rock record, glad it was sent our way."- Jeff Cloud, CEO of Velvet Blue Music , ex- Starflyer 59/Joy Electric

"Favorite song: 'Just Last Night.' Least favorite: 'Secret Sins.' Latter day Squad Five-O sound-a-likes that will eventually morph their sound into the smooth southern poppyseed-rock of Rhett Miller...with grand results. This disc is worth owning simply so you can look back and hear me say, 'I told you so.'" - Cliffy, ex- Huntingtons , Main Line Riders

"The song, 'Just Last Night' has a really marketable rock style with good use of imagery. Adam has good potential for developing something mainstream. The image and art direction is quite good." - Independent A&R Professional's at TAXI.COM

"I really enjoyed listening to this recording. I found it to be a great listen and really liked hearing the diversity of influences in the recording. 'In the Name of Liberty' stood out as an energetic, punk-driven track. 'Southern Girl' was my favorite song on the cd. I felt it was a great rock song that could be enjoyed by anyone with catchy lyrics and a fun sound." Mason Peralta, SHUT EYE Records and Agency

"From the forever famous 'Southern Girl' to the sad-but-true 'Fifteen,' In The Name Of Liberty shines light on Middle America's Heartland." - Hooper, Hooperbandp.com

"Rock music for college freshmen. Enough pop to keep the girls listening, and enough of an alternative garage sound to make them think they found something really cool and edgy. He is less wussy than the picture of him on the CD would lead you to believe (with his Oasis haircut, black suit jacket and trendy beard), but not by much." - Lisa, rocknrollpurgatory.com
