Member-only story
What’s your artist name and where are you from?
My artist name is Adam LaVerdiere. I’m from Central Maine, USA. (New England works, too.)
Why do you love music?
I love the way music brings people together. I heard once that instrumentals can speak more words to more people than the lyrics ever could. I’ve released some instrumentals, but I still love the way that even lyrics can connect to so many different people going through so many different seasons of life. Songs can mean so many things to so many different people, but when we listen to the music or go to the shows, we all share in that one moment together. There’s something special about that.
What makes you different as a music artist?
I try to write songs that people can relate to, but they’re all based off of things I’ve experienced in my own life. Sometimes, we can feel so isolated and like we’re the only ones going through something terrible (or good, for that matter). I think it’s nice to know and hear that other people aren’t that different than us and that we’re not alone in our thoughts and feelings, so I try to represent that well as an artist and songwriter.
