ceforall.jpg[/IMG]Adam Wayde's a high profile country favorite, performing at many of the famous Broadway nightclubs. Though he is now well on his way as an up & coming recording artist. Success hasn't come easy, but determination, tenacity, charisma and just plain guts has enabled him to overcome adversity and obstacles that would have discouraged many other individuals.At the age of five, Adam's singing roots started on Sunday mornings in church while he, his mother, and two sisters sang songs by the Bill Gaither Trio. His passion for singing and music carried over in his home where he enthusiastically sang along with Elvis, Andy Williams and others from his mother's favorte albums.At family get-togethers, while the other children were off playing, he was faithfully sitting on the back porch floor listening to good ole down-home songs sung by his mother and Uncle. School was no different for Adam. Recognizing his talent, the choir teacher pulled him aside, selected him for all the lead parts, solos, and agreed to help develop his voice one-on-one. Offering great advice to a youngster, she commented, "You have a gift, and what you do with it is up to you."A few years later, driving down the road, he saw a sign reading, "Live Music" the performing band, Country Jammers, was featuring an open mic night. After observing the process, Adam asked if he could sit-in with them. While singing "Lady Down On Love" by Alabama, Adam was performing his first official public performance.Two weeks later, revisiting the club with a friend, the band's leader recognized him sitting at a table. He remarked to the audience, "Folks, have I got a treat for you", inviting Adam on stage. This time, suffering from a cold, he was reluctant to perform, but gave in to their request, and to his delight, after singing the first line of "Forever and Ever, Amen", he received a standing ovation from the crowd.The music bug had bitten, and Adam was getting hooked. Later that night, the bandleader startled Adam by asking him to serve as the group's new lead singer, while he would step-back from the mic and play guitar. Overwhelmed, but excited, Adam accepted the position and entered the birth of his new career as a professional entertainer, His high-energy shows were performed in almost every club in Northeast Ohio.Then life's dark side slapped him in the face, revealing he had developed cancer, abruptly ending his current performance run. Not one to accept defeat or let adversity keep him down, he immediately sprung into action with the support of his family and a great medical team. He underwent two operations and entered recovery for the next year. As a positive person he chose to benefit from all his life experiences, negative and positive, and learned the power of the smile. In fact, a contagious smile became one of his greatest trademarks adding to his onstage dynamics.Ready to spring back into the music business, he started from scratch creating his new band. This journey took him to twenty-seven states and two countries where he performed top forty hits.Adam then made the commitment to advance his career, and go for broke, to be recognized as a true industry professional. He perfected his craft, his voice, stage presence, performance skills, and was fully committed to becoming the best he could be in his chosen profession. Adam knew it was time to head to the home of country music, Nashville. In a short time, he recruited a top quality band, and as history reveals he is now one of Nashville's most renowned local entertainers with an ever-expanding fan base which is now growing beyond Nashville's boarders.With the release of his Demo CD Lovin & Leavin, fans and industry pros alike are excited to see where this will take him.
