Bio
“No Guilt in Life, No fear in death” is the motto 23 year old singer songwriter Adam Hynes lives by. “For me it means living by your heart, making everything count and after every day when you close your eyes you have no regrets...you learn from every little thing that takes place in your life...there will be no guilt in my life so I will not fear death cause I gave life my best shot”
Hynes was born in Kingston Ontario Canada 1989 and spent the first 7 years of his life moving all over Canada. After moving to Sydney in 1996 and then Perth in 1997, he fell in love with music at the age of 20. The first musical instrument he picked up was the trumpet, but it never felt right. It was the guitar that really caught his imagination and started him on the path as a song writer.
Hynes, who now lives in Melbourne has been influenced by the great Damien Rice, Ani Diffanco, The Rocket Summer and early Jason Mraz. His biggest influences are Dallas Green and Dashboard Confessional.
It’s of no surprise that Hynes loves surfing and enjoys going on adventures with friends and making new memories... particular those that inspire a song. Hynes’ tattoo on his left arm of a swallow shows his outlook on life and his closeness to his family, “...it stands for one partner in life, loyalty, and my family. I've always travelled leaving my cousins, aunts and uncles and beloved Nanna and Grandad behind. Swallows travel thousands and thousands of kilometres but eventually come home to their family”.
It is this that Hynes sings and writes about – love, life and the journey along the way.
