New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Cumulus' NASH Next Season One runner-up and powerful lyricist Adam Searan has penned an additional eight tracks that are included in the deluxe version of his self-titled album, available now for listeners on iTunes, Google Play and Spotify.
"I'm so excited to give listeners an even greater view of who I am as an artist through the release of the deluxe version of the album," said Adam. "The new songs are some of my most meaningful lyrically and musically."
The original new songs feature everything from upbeat, youthful party anthems ("Get A
Little Crazy"), to heartfelt ballads that reflect the painful truths and wistful memories of a lost love ("Bumper Sticker"). The melodic and tonal diversity showcases Adam's versatility as an authentic storyteller, who speaks from the heart about his experiences to resonate with listeners at every walk of life.
The tattooed tunesmith's vocal ability, which sets him apart in
Music City, is on full display in the extended album, with tracks like "Emotional High" highlighting Adam's remarkable falsetto, and "
Airwaves" featuring his clear and breezy tone that has become a declarative mark of his work. "Adam, with his distinctive look, style and sound, has created a brand that is unique in contemporary country music," says Jon D'Agostino, co-writer and President of Demolition
Music Publishing. Co-publisher, Abbe Nameche adds, "With his passionate lyrics and original melodies, he puts his signature on every song."
The deluxe version of the project also boasts five fan favorites previously released, including acclaimed hit single "Last," for which he grabbed the top prize in the 2015 Billboard Unsigned Only
Music Competition and the Grand Prize in the Country category of the
John Lennon International Songwriting Contest. The powerful tune caught the attention of
Music Row journalist Robert K. Oermann, who stated, "This Nashvillian won the
John Lennon International Songwriting Contest's grand prize in the country division with this ringing, stirring, upbeat anthem about questing for answers in an uncertain world. I can certainly hear why. It is immensely melodic and effortlessly hooky. The bonuses are that he sings it like a bird, and the production is a mini masterpiece. Essential listening."
Country Weekly published the following review of Adam's performance at the NASH Next season finale, "Void of bells, whistles and other production razzle-dazzle, Adam is compelling, drawing the audience in with his vocals that are as authentic and sincere as his lyrics."
Adam reached audiences worldwide when his songs were featured on television programs like Cold Case, Miami Ink, All My Children, One Life to Live and American Weed. This Nashville native has been profiled on/in the following: CMA Close Up, Country Weekly, Nashville Scene, Nashville
