Sad This Fix

Sad This Fix is the solo project of Saint Cycle’s guitarist Adam Brooks. Saint Cycle is a Dayton based rock band with a sound very different from the laid back melodies of Sad This Fix. This difference served as the primary impetus for Brooks’s decision to embark upon a solo project. While Brooks valued the energy and speed of Saint Cycle, he needed to address other musical influences that are either hidden or unable to come out in Saint Cycle’s material and performance. These musical influences range from Hank Williams and Gram Parsons to Bill Fay, Bob Dylan and the Beatles. Brooks grew up hearing artists such as George Jones, Loretta Lynn and Bill Monroe, and while he understands that true music cannot be held within the limits of genre, he does concede that some approaches are not suitable in all situations. Thus he accepted the need for a solo project separate from the new/melodic metal of Saint Cycle. Sad This Fix can be heard on MySpace.com, and seen performing in venues throughout Dayton.
