Adeem the Artist

Harvested in the roaming hills of the lower piedmont mountains, Adeem the Artist shows teeth on “notes from inside.” In short bursts of literary folk songs that draw inspiration from a full library of greater Roots sounds, Adeem traverses the complexities of pinball, suicide, & grand larceny.

Frenetic & electrifying; the new collection nests at the intersection of stand-up comedy, social commentary, and well-seasoned country songs that follow the likes of Tyler Childers in expanding the genre. Their thematic albums and confounding one-person-show invite audiences to lead with curiosity, & disarm their expectations of the other.

Recorded in three hours at Pink Moon Studios in Knoxville, TN & released one week later, it is brash in its urgency & unflinching in its vulnerability as it reimagines the soundscape of the greater American South.
