Contrary to his generations unwavering optimism in an age of abundance, Adam is not afraid to admit that he is a bit of an outsider. Rejecting assembly line hits made with cheap plastic parts and machine labor, Spry is working with his hands and enjoying the travails of modern life. His music is introspective and complex and sometimes dark. He knows there is no avoiding the inevitable but he is inspired by it. We live in a world of fears and his goal is to create music that helps people embrace them and grow. Adam currently resides in the Sunset district of San Francisco.
Adam Spry
In the tradition of indie rock, Adam Spry isn’t just carrying the torch but reigniting the genre with a long overdue spark. His most recent release, “Sun Won’t Rise”, embraces the waves of uncertainty that inevitably crash into us all, while simultaneously providing a reminder that the storm shall pass. Spry fuses earnest lyricism with a nostalgic composition of saxophone draped hooks that will make you want to listen again and again. His musical style has been likened to The Shins, Fruit Bats and The Kinks.
Growing up as a military brat (a child of parents who serve in the armed forces), Adam Spry found himself feeling alone in a new town and new school, year after year. He’d eventually come to realize that music would be where he planted his roots, finding a sense of home listening to his favorite albums. Adam is driven by the idea of creating music that resonates with others who also feel adrift, longing for a sense of home and belonging. By blending emotional storytelling with melodies that evoke warmth and nostalgia, Adam aims to offer a refuge in his music—a place where listeners can find solace and rediscover the feeling of being anchored, even when life feels unpredictable and overwhelming.
Whether he’s performing with his lively backing band, or an intimate solo set, Adam Spry has captured audiences while touring throughout California, the Pacific Northwest, The United Kingdom and Mexico.
