It was during the sophomore year of his undergraduate career that he decided to shift his focus from the bass guitar to the double bass. He then earned his Masters in Music degree from SUNY Purchase where he studied with Todd Coolman and Doug Weiss. Noted New York City venues where Adam has performed include the Bitter End, the Garage, 55 Bar, and Smalls where he is currently the house bassist for the Tuesday late night jam session.
