This is the first single to be released on June 9th, 2023 off the upcoming Fall album “Smash It Up”. This is the “other” song about Bowser from Mario Bros. The ADAM MUSIC PROJECT is moving on to other amazing video game characters and we are so excited to share this music with ROCK lovers and Gamers! Enjoy!
The focus track on the newly released full length LP Apex Risen is a song called “Fly”. Inspired by Valkyrie, written by Adam DeGraide and sung by the amazing Lacy Saunders and lead guitar performed by Dameon Aranda, this is one track you can’t miss. Thanks for listening! And if you love it, please share it with others.
A.D.A.M. stands for (Artists Developing Astonishing Music). Founded by Adam DeGraide with the idea that collaboration is the one of the best ways to make music, A.D.A.M. was born. The project features many fantastic artists from various bands. The songs are inspired by video game characters from games both new and old. On the first 3 releases including the full length LP we focus exclusively on characters from the blockbuster Apex Legends. Using the characters from Adam’s favorite video game for inspiration would allow a ton of creativity that could inspire everything from the sound, melody and overall feel of the album. Wanting to make a pure ROCK album was the goal and the characters became the perfect subject matter in his opinion. As Adam DeGraide says “this is the ultimate fan art project”. This album features over 25 different contributors from all walks of life. The ages of the artists range from 19 to 51. Variety is the spice of life and the A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT delivers on that promise. The project has also recently recording 12 new songs to be released throughout 2023 with songs about Bowser, Princess Peach, Jill Valentine (Resident Evil), Cloud (Final Fantasy 7), Joel (Last of Us) and so much more. We hope everyone enjoys what we are trying to do here. Please be sure to “follow” us and subscribe on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, TikTok and others. THANK YOU!

These woman were truly amazing and we are blown away by their performance on this EP during Me, Myself & I. I think it’s safe to say that we are the very first band to ever have a choir sing…”you’ve been Bamboozled!” LOL
