Adam Richman
- The Patience EP
By Eric Bodrero
Allentown, Pennsylvania-born Adam Richman
draws his rather bizarre assortment of influences from Michael Jackson,
Nine Inch Nails, and The Monkees, among others. A piano and guitar player
since elementary school, Adam considers himself a “mad scientist” of rock,
playing every instrument himself, and concocting and assimilating layers
of guitar and vocals and mixing everything on a computer. The sound, consequentially,
are memorable, pop-driven anthems and sincere, true-to-heart vocals.
Twenty-two year old Adam Richman was less
than thrilled with college (sounds familiar), and The Patience EP
is a result of a passion that ran deeper than biology and student centers.
The EP is a quick little five-song, acoustic guitar-heavy little ditty,
with a splash of Elliot Smith and Guster to be found in the vocals and
songwriting.
The songs float along with a placid demeanor,
never resting on there own merits, but never overpowering the listener.
Every track leads you in a visceral, distinct direction, leaving you with
varying moods, from the contemplative melancholy of “Patience and Science”
and “Asleep”, to the bouncy anxiety of “What’s Gone Ain’t Gone” and “Broken
Glass.”
Every song from the full length Patience
and Science will be posted to adamrichman.com up to its release on
April 19th. I recommend you check it out and make yourself familiar with
this fresh up-and-comer.
