Deriving from the city of New York, in the borough of The Bronx, Adam Falcon is a guitarist, singer/songwriter whose music is rooted in the blues and early soul. Digesting early sounds of Fats Domino, Aretha Franklin and B.B. King.HFalcon became heavily inspired by The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Hal David & Burt Bacharach, Sly & The Family Stone, Smokey Robinson, and the great writers for Motown. As a teenager, he played in countless bars and clubs throughout the city with numerous bands. At 17, he'd written his first song for the legendary jazz guitarist George Benson, but being too shy to present the song, it wasn't until 10 years later that the late, iconic music producer, Arif Mardin, heard the song and decided to have Benson record it for Warner Brothers Records. That song is called "In Search Of A Dream" from the Grammy nominated album "In Your Eyes." At the age of 21, Falcon embarked on a national tour, playing for an act, opening for the Bee Gees.Some of the artists that he's worked and/or shared the stage with are Roberta Flack, Sophie B. Hawkins, Whitney Houston, B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Jim Lauderdale, Robert Palmer, Phyllis Hyman, Peter Gabriel, and Nona Hendryx. "Either recording an album for The Village People or playing with Jonathan Butler on The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson, it was one big musical trip" The Light Shines is Adam Falcon's most recent effort. The EP, released in 2015, marks his fifth recording to date.
