U.S. folk-pop Americana singer-songwriter Peter Bradley Adams will perform Oct. 5 at B10 Live while Swedish electronica band DNKL will perform Oct. 8 at the same venue.
Adams worked as a freelance score composer for film and television until he formed Eastmountainsouth band in 2001.
After releasing a limited edition solo EP in 2005, Adams was praised by critics, including The Boston Globe, who called it, “a beautiful set of Americana music. It confirms the dreamy-voiced Adams as an artist to follow.” This effort was followed up by his first full-length solo release “Gather Up” in 2006. Almost the whole album was recorded in his apartment in 2005 between touring dates.
Southern California’s super sessionman Greg Leisz on his famous Weisenborn guitar is featured on “Queen of Hearts.” Adams was named “Notable New Artist of the Year” in 2006 by The Loft (Sirius XM) Satellite Radio.
In 2008, Adams was named by The Wall Street Journal as one of the “21st-century writers whose songs are worth exploring” and described as “having a way with melody and lyrics and ready to be seen and heard.”
Swedish electronica band DNKL is Europe’s new electronic ambient sensation. The band has been featured at some of Europe’s biggest festivals, winning a legion of fans around the world with their mesmerizing dark electronic pop. Their first EP “Wolfhour” put them immediately on the map of Europe’s indie music scene.
