Album Notes

Bill Adams is a Piedmont-style guitarist with an affinity for interpreting old-time fiddle tunes and songs fingerstyle. Born to a military family and moving often, Bill spent most of his formative years searching for a roots culture he could call his own. Learning to play fingerstyle guitar in his youth opened doors first to interpreting pop songs his own way, and later into country music, blues and mountain fiddle music. Along the way he studied classical guitar as well. Bill currently lives in Charlottesville, Va. He is host of WTJU's Walking Blues show which airs locally every Sunday night on 91.1FM and on the web at wtju.net.

"When music takes you somewhere, it may as well be that front porch in your mind when the old-timers picked great stuff and sang the songs you never forget." - Bill Adams
