Dee Adams

biography Dee Adams has been likened to some of today's most influential women in music - women like Bonnie Raitt, Edie Brickell, Jonatha Brooke, and Sheryl Crow. With an education in vocal performance (from both Eastman and Berklee), and years of performing with her Alvarez jumbo, it only fits that she’d be compared to those great women.

biography Dee Adams has been likened to some of today's most influential women in music - women like Bonnie Raitt, Edie Brickell, Jonatha Brooke, and Sheryl Crow. With an education in vocal performance (from both Eastman and Berklee), and years of performing with her Alvarez jumbo, it only fits that she’d be compared to those great women. Dee writes and sings punchy, poetic, acoustically driven songs drenched in hooks and harmonies, while her voice is warm, rich, and bluesy. Reviews have coined Dee’s style as “earthy”, “sweet to spunky”, and have said that she has “lyrics that speak to the heart and mind”. Among Dee’s accolades and accomplishments is her appearance on the 2002 Songs Inspired By Literature compilation. Having been named Grand Prize Winner of the 2002 Songs Inspired by Literature songwriting contest, Dee’s song “Pennsylvania” can be found alongside tracks donated by David Bowie, Roseanne Cash, Steve Earle, and Tom Waits. In February 2003, Dee’s EP with travelling band The Roadtrippers was released on Sage Indie Music, called Taking My Time. A lush, well produced set of songs punctuate the intention of Dee’s music – to keep some fun in the act of introspection. Currently, Dee Adams lives in Buffalo, NY, and performs all over the region as a solo act, with a full band, as a jazz vocalist, and as a backing vocalist with other performing songwriters in the area.
