Between Us

Peter Bradley Adams began his musical journey in Birmingham, Alabama at the age of five when he discovered the Beatles Sgt. Peppers album in his fathers record collection. After wearing the record out on his aqua green Playschool record player, Adams went on to create his own house music, setting up plastic trash cans and using pencils as drum sticks. Eventually his grandfather purchased real drum sticks to replace the pencils and a true musician was born. Peters Beatles obsession quickly grew into Beatles lip-sync sessions with friends on his street, and impromptu basement concerts for parents. The first instrument that Adams played, at age 6, was a piano purchased by his parents from the old Birmingham, AL Tutweiler Hotel before it was demolished. Adams remembers both the piano and the lemon seeds inside it that were left over from spilled cocktails. As a child, Peters music was influenced by his grandfather who had been a jazz clarinetist in big bands during the time of Benny Goodman and Pete Fountain. Also a pianist, Adams remembers lying under his grandfathers piano listening to him play. Adams' went on to earn a B.A. and Masters Degree in composition and eventually wound up in Los Angeles where he worked as a freelance film and TV composer. In 2000, Adams co-founded the duo Eastmountainsouth, and in 2002 they were signed by Robbie Robertson (of The Band) to DreamWorks Records. Adams has since released three solo records (Gather Up, Leavetaking and Traces) and this, his fourth, Between Us, is through Maine-based label Mishara Music. The record was produced by Adams, Jonathan Trebing and longtime collaborator Lex Price. When asked about the progression from his first release Gather Up to his current release, Between Us, Adams says, I think I've been progressively finding my voice, both as a songwriter and a singer; and although I feel like I'm finally starting to hit my stride, there's still this continual dissatisfaction.... still a feeling that I haven't found it yet.
