Dan Adams

Songwriter/artist Dan Adams established himself as a "road-dog" musician, touring and performing across the Southeast United States in the late 90s and early 2000s.

Dan averaged more than 175 shows annually for more than 5 years. Now that's what we call dedication!

Since then, Dan carved out a niche as one of the most sought after up-and-coming writers in Nashville. In addition to co-writing with many of the most successful veteran writers in town, Adams hosts a regular Nashville songwriter showcase highlighting the talents of many of those writers.

This series has garnered him attention as both a seasoned writer and uniquely talented artist. 

Adams has two cuts on the solo release from Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply that was released in March 2011. He's also releasing a new album this spring, a follow-up to his 2008 album The Hard Way and 2010's acoustic album, Straight Up.

Dan Adams performs Thursday, April 28th, at Island Dogs from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. And seriously: Why would you want to be anywhere else?
