Originally aired:
Adam Green is a solo artist. Let's get that out of the way, because those words seems to have become a synonym for bland. There have been moments of beauty and inspiration, true, but far more common has been a slew of staid safe songs, as solo, so-called singer-songwriters rattle around music's ribcage like a stone heart. Where once the visions of artists like Dylan or Bowie led to musical innovation, now being a soloist seems like free therapy for a bunch of acoustic guitar-toting saps. Adam Green is a solo artist - but he doesn't spew his pain. Following his debut with his band the Moldy Peaches, the now 24 year-old New Yorker has released a trio of solo albums that rally against the predictable and obvious. Unique, funny, and carefully crafted indiepop antifolk!
Location: 88.1 FM
