Being born into a family filled with singers has its drawbacks. “There was so much musical talent in the home that I grow up in, that I had to really work in other areas to help expand my talent.” Explains Adrian McKinnon. A 25 year old, R&B crooner, song writer, and producer, who hails from Spokane, Washington. “We use to sing for hours, not like the Jackson’s or anything, because we had fun while we were doing it. To this day I go about making my music the same way. First and foremost I have fun.”
With the complex arrangements that all of his production has, and the intricate melodies that his songs are filled with, it’s hard to imagine that’s just him having fun. One thing is for sure hearing Adrian’s work is a mind boggling experience to say the least. One can’t help but to ask: Who, what, when, where, and How? “All I can say is that I really, really, work hard at what it is that I do. I don’t rush anything, I just let it take its natural course and let the music form into what ever it becomes.”
With shows of all sizes, and draws under his belt, Adrian has been captivating audiences all over the North West for the past 3 years with his smooth falsetto. “Performing for me is not only the most rewarding part for me, but also my favorite. I get to share not just my talent, but also my passion for my music with the audience. To have people come up to me after shows and let me know what my set meant to them in turn means the world to me. It puts life in it’s proper perspective. It goes to show you that you are not just on this earth for you, and you should share your talents with others”
Adrian’s musical resume doesn’t just boast of R&B songs, but also includes Video game scores, jingle writing, and even rap. “Rap is something that I have always enjoyed doing. Writing rap songs has helped me tremendously in my R&B song writing, because it helps you go about writing love songs in a more abstract way, which I feel is one of the things that is missing in the genre of R&B music. At the end of the day I just want to contribute good music to as many people as possible.”
With R&B back, and selling well Adrian brings a different dimension to the R&B table. Adrian is the only one at the table of “R&B New Jacks” that have the ability to write, produce, and perform all on the same level. A very high level. “Everyone has a talent, I just want to keep exercising my talents, and expanding on them. I believe the sky is the limit to where my talents can take me.” With that said, Adrian is without a doubt a star waiting to be shot across the sky for all to see.
