Apple Music aptly describe the super-suave trio’s sound as follows: “Soaring three-part
harmonies, melodies packed with heartfelt pleas and fiery rock riffs have made ADAM a
formidable force in Afrikaans pop Pen crushing ballads and bright hooks then grab their
guitars for propulsive, up-tempo jams. On hit singles "Liefde Soldaat" and "Sonder", steady
kick-drum hits drive layered vocals that ramp up to epic, belted peaks. This is the power of
ADAM: pop-rock sensibilities fuelled by ardent sentiments with infectious rhythms that
leave you craving more.”
Alongside their fleet of well-known and widely-celebrated Afrikaans hits, they have also
achieved massive commercial success with their collaboration with well-renowned popstar Daniel Baron. In 2015 they released the English EP “Young & Wild” featuring the
countrywide number 1 hit “Say What You Want” which also received airplay in Belgium,
Greece, Luxembourg and Netherlands. The song has achieved over a million digital
streams, and still continues to be a fan favourite.
