Welcome to the #1 Acoustic Podcast on iTunes - brought to you weekly by 
FREE ADMISSION: Energetic, Evocative and Funky Solo Acoustic Guitar. Original Compositions as well as arrangements of well known songs by Stevie Wonder, The Beatles, Bill Withers and Dr. Lonnie Smith. Adam was born and raised in Harlem. He was mugged in front of his building when he was 10. He played in a hard rock band at 12, got ripped off by a club owner on his first gig at 15, and by 18 he was a rapper on a gold record in overseas. That's callled "paying dues" - and you hear it in his songs, in his feeling for the blues, in his groove, in his touch. The history and life experience puts the fire in this man's music. He puts the "sizzle" in the "steak" musically speaking. For more go to 
I work with Mr. Shelton in Utah at The Music School (www.themusicschool.us) and I can say that you’ll like him as a person, too. I love his album “Up On Market Street” for its lyrics and it’s variety of songs. He is definitely an artist to become familiar with.
