Adam James is a Detroit-born singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose unique flavor of pop-rock has distinguished him as one of Los Angeles’s exciting new artists to watch.

Before his diverse background as a creator led him to collaborate with industry titans including Dua Lipa, Olivia Rodrigo, and Netflix, Adam graduated summa cum laude from Boston’s Berklee College of Music, where he double majored in Guitar Performance and Contemporary Writing & Production. Since then, he’s worked as a first-call guitarist for many artists and agencies in the LA area and beyond.

Adam’s debut release, “Olive Tree,” is an intimate recording that candidly explores the process of witnessing an ex-partner’s budding new relationship. The ballad is a poignant introduction to Adam’s forthcoming discography, which explores themes of love, sobriety, and modern romance in the digital age.

Listeners identify Adam’s music somewhere among the sounds of modern songsmiths like JP Saxe and Samm Henshaw, fused with the style of 2000s rock artists like John Mayer, The Fray, and All-American Rejects.

Branded by his wide-reaching influences and sincere lyricism, Adam James has produced a brand of songwriting that is uniquely his own.
