Adam Ezra

Artist Information

Biography

Adam Ezra, an experientialist as much as a musician or songwriter, has spent time living out of a van, farming in Canada, volunteering for the relief effort in Kosovo, and practicing environmental geography in South Africa. Whether it been as kitchen hand or carpenter, teacher, athlete, or traveler, Ezra crams it all into the music, always challenging our perspective and often teetering somewhere between the ballsy rocker and sensitive poet.

Most of Adam's touring is done with his band these days, "Adam Ezra Group". To view their EPK, go to: WWW.SONICBIDS.COM/ADAMEZRAGROUP
