***Adam is in search of a bass player!!!*** If you live in the Houston , TX area and got the chops - want to play some low down and dirty blues and rock with Adam ? If so drop us a line! ***
Just another cat from Texas ..... Adam Walton was raised on the blues, he and his brother Trent were soul brothers from another time...they were different and they felt it. The music resonated with them. They could feel it deep in their soul. Maybe it was the water , or the air , or the soil...I hope to god its all of them ... something put the music in them. They grew up and played the music they wanted to play.. blues , soul , good old rock and roll, funky inflections...anything with fire and emotion. Years went by. Then life took the brothers to a place where neither would have liked...as Trent fought a virulent Cancer that ravaged his body , but never his spirit. He fought with all his might but lost that last battle. Adam lost his brother , best friend, and musical soul mate. It was in this time of great pain that Adam resolved to press on and make the kind of music that he and Trent would have been proud to call their own. Never compromising, always sincere and heartfelt , utterly unique, the music Adam makes needs no fancy introduction. It speaks for its self.
-A Friend
Now a word from Adam himself...
Please give a listen to the inspired and inspirational music of my Brother and best friend... Trent Walton...may he rest in peace. He was a musician of unequaled soul and talent, a better guitar player than I could ever hope to be... If a silky sweet songbird's singing more suits your taste, visit the page of my muse and coincidentally ....my wife... Brooke Alyson .
Hey cool one! I like it allot! I'm still goin on about the Bramhall show like Brooke. *lol* I've been wanting to do a real creative bluesy song (Bramhall inspired) but still figuring how to go about it. So look out for it. I'm now on the Bramhall kick. *lol* Great picture for the new one as well! Ha ha! Love ya.
Wow, great new one man. Great structure without the restriction of structure. It does have a bit of a Fogelburg sound to it yet ALMOST a tasteful 80's sound as well. That's a good thing though!*lol* Love ya bro, -Jason-
Thanks allot, I appreciate it. I think you will like what I've done on vocals for the song you sent. If my internet lets me I'll hopefully get it up on here tonight along with another new one I wrote and recorded last night. -Jason-
Hey, that means allot. Thanks. I deffinately dig the new ones. Enjoy your stay might just be one of your most funky tracks. Like it allot! Love you bro, -Jason-
