Description
Adem draws his inspiration from artists like Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, Tribe Called Quest, Gang Star, and the Roots. His craftsmanship of storytelling is unique and rhythmically hypnotic. Adem’s stature on stage and baritone voice ooze with richness, heartfelt warmth, life wisdom, and command. Having lived in Seattle and NYC, his sound is an elixir of grit, instrumentation, big stage performance, and Broadway lights. Barby Lane opens.
