About the promoter, Pat Adams:
Pat Adams worked for the Kaleidoscope, a Nashville music paper in the 1970’s. He was also a reporter for WLAC radio, reporting from Nashville hotspots like the Hee Haw TV set and RCA Recording Studios, where Elvis Presley recorded many of his early hits. This was the start of Pat’s interest in concert promotion and covering the local music scene.
His first project was the Creekers Ball in the 1980's, an annual Nashville music event featuring dozens of southern rock acts.
In 2003, Pat got the idea for Tennessee Concerts as an outlet to document, preserve and showcase his decades of covering the Nashville music scene, online to a worldwide audience.
More recently Pat is the promoter of Nashville’s longest running rock & roll musicians jam, The Play It Again Jam. Players at the 2006-2009 Play it Again Jam events include musicians that have worked with Taylor Swift, Toby Keith, The Four Tops, Kiss, Robert Palmer, Beatlemania, Pacific Gas & Electric, Rick Derringer, Sam & Dave, Wilson Pickett, J.J. Cale, Marshall Tucker Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Stonewall Jackson, Hank Williams Jr, Crystal Gayle, Jerry Reed, Peter Frampton, The Platters, Percy Sledge, Peter Noone, Blackfoot, Molly Hatchet, Brenda Lee, plus several members from the original Charlie Daniels Band.
Pat has a vision and commitment to helping bands fine tune their presentation and hopefully rewarded for their efforts in a tough economic time, where promotion is key and crucial to take your band to the next level. Pat pledges to make your experience with this opportunity a fair and pleasant one.
