Live Music Session #137 – Adam Masterson + Jules Hill

Rocking a classic guitar, under tousled hair, and behind vintage shades, Adam Masterson represents a timeless ideal of what a Rockstar should be—yet he does so for a new age. Unabashedly embracing old school influences as he updates tradition with heaps of spirit and soul, he taps into the kind of magic we yearn for, but don’t get enough of.

In doing so, he emerges as an outlier built from his own design, bucking trends and emanating stadium-size charisma at the same time.

Standing at his own juncture between English panache, heartland empathy, gospel ambition, and pop prowess, the West London-born and New York-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist brings a rock ‘n’ roll edge to pop.

Since his full-length debut One Tale Too Many, Adam has consistently enthralled audiences. As a charismatic live performer, he’s shared stages with everyone from Tori Amos and Amy Winehouse to The Stereophonics at the world-renowned Earls Court and the Cardiff Millennium Stadium. Additionally, he has guested with Mick Jones of The Clash, Patti Smith, and Joseph Arthur, to name a few.

Ultimately, Masterson merges styles and eras into a sound wholly his own.

Support from the brilliant Jules Hill (Julesbury)
