Hi folks, 

My new single ‘Like It or Not’ will be released on Friday 12th June! 

You can pre-save the single now via https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/adamsweet/like-it-or-not 

It will be available on all major digital platforms and as a pay-what-you-want download direct from my website on the 12th June. 

This is the second single to be released from my forthcoming ‘Sink or Swim’ album, and once again features Ian Jennings (this time playing upright bass) and Garry Kroll (drums and percussion). The single also introduces producer Josiah J Manning on piano and Hammond organ. 

'Like It or Not' has already been getting plenty of radio play and some great reviews. Here’s what the folks at w21 Music have to say about it… 

“With Adam providing suitably laid back vocals and a divine guitar solo this is pretty much flawless, you could leave it on repeat all day and never tire of it.” Read the full review at www.w21music.com 

To celebrate the single release I will once again be live streaming a single launch show on my Facebook page on the day of the release – tune in at 8pm on Friday 12th for that one…would love for you to join me! 

Thanks for all your continued support these last few months. It is massively appreciated and I really hope you enjoy the new track! 

Very best wishes,

‘You or Me’ is the first single to be revealed from my forthcoming album ‘Sink or Swim’. It gives you a good taster of what is to come on this new record featuring my band Ian Jennings on bass and Garry Kroll on drums.

This particular track also features a guest appearance from our good friend Ian Briggs on harmonica. 

I really hope you enjoy the new single and please spread the word if you do. You’ll be able to pre-order the full album soon.

Hi folks, 

I’m excited to be able to share some good news with you – my new single ‘You or Me’ will be released on Friday 1st May!  

This is the first single to be released from my new album and it will be available on all your preferred digital platforms and as a download from my website.  

Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Amazon and Google Play users can pre-save/pre-order the single now via https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/adamsweet/you-or-me. You can download it direct from my website from 1stMay. 

It feels great to finally be putting out some new music for you. It’s been such a strange month and all the plans we had made have been turned upside down, including the album launch show on 12th June. This has now been postponed and we have tentatively pencilled in 23rd October as an alternative date for the show…I will of course keep you all updated on this. As for the actual album release, you wont have to wait till October for this but it’s looking likely to be pushed back a little in the current situation…again, more info on this soon. 

Finally, a massive thanks to everyone who’s been tuning in to the Facebook Live streams so far! It’s the closest we can get to a gig for the foreseeable and it’s been so lovely to still be able to connect with so many of you. I won’t be doing one this Tuesday but will instead be going live on Facebook on Friday at 8pm to celebrate the single release that day…hope you can tune in for that one! 

Thanks for all the support and I hope you enjoy the new single when it arrives. 

Look after yourselves. Stay happy and healthy! 

Adam

Hi folks, 

I hope you’re all keeping well. I just wanted to let you know about a couple of shows I’ll be streaming live this week from the comfort of my little home studio.  

Firstly, thanks to everyone who tuned in to my first attempt at one of these last Tuesday. I must admit it felt pretty strange at first, but it was a lot of fun once I settled into it and I was really blown away by the response and the incredible generosity in the virtual tip jar! It was great to be able to connect with so many of you. There were a lot of requests coming in too, so the plan is to do it once a week with the next one being this Tuesday 14th at 8pm. This also happens to be the second Tuesday of the month when I would usually be playing my monthly residency at Ebdons in Exeter, so hopefully some of the regular Ebdons crowd can join me too! If you’d like to tune in just go to https://www.facebook.com/adamsweetmusic/live at 8pm (UK time) on Tuesday. 

Also on Friday 17th April at 8pm I will be playing a “gig” at the Virtual Brook Inn! I have been playing regularly at the real Brook Inn in Plympton ever since it opened in 2014, where the landlord John Govier has always been a huge supporter of live music as well as working tirelessly to create a hub for the local community. So it’s no surprise that in these difficult times John has come up with the genius idea of creating ‘The Virtual Brook Inn’, which has already played host to a bunch of gigs in the last couple of weeks. I’m really pleased to have been asked to play and you can catch this one on The Virtual Brook Inn Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/virtualbrookinn/

So two gigs this week…that’s almost a tour!  

Also I hope to be able to update you on news of the album launch soon…obviously there’s a lot of uncertainty hanging over all the plans we had for the release. As soon as I know what’s happening I’ll let you know, but the first single will be coming out on 1st May…more info on that soon! 

Thanks again for all the support. Keep in touch and stay happy and healthy.

Hi folks, 

It’ll come as no surprise that all upcoming gigs are off until the current advice changes. This includes the full-band show at the Bronx in Teignmouth on 29th April, which we will be rescheduling for later in the year.  

As for May and June we will just have to wait and see. Obviously there is a big question mark over the album launch show on 12th June too…we may have to push it back but I’ll keep you all updated.  

Whatever happens I’ll still be bringing you some new music soon…keep an eye out for news on the first single coming next month. In the meantime take care of yourselves and do what you can to support each other.  

Keep in touch.

Hi folks, 

Hope you’re all well. Apologies for being a bit quiet recently, but as many of you know I finished recording my new album last year and since then I’ve been busy behind the scenes getting everything in place for the album release… 

So I’m delighted to be able to announce that the release date for my new album will be Friday 12th June and we’ll be marking the occasion with a launch show at the Marine Theatre in Lyme Regis that night! 

The Marine Theatre is a beautiful venue where I’ve had the pleasure of performing many times over the years, and as my hometown theatre where I witnessed my first proper gig almost 20 years ago (remember The Hamsters anyone?) it feels fitting to be returning here to launch my new album. 

The launch show will see the new album ‘Sink or Swim’ performed in its entirety with my full band featuring some special guests, and we’ll be playing plenty of old favourites for you too. 

For more info on the album launch show check out the Marine Theatre website here

You can book your tickets here

I really hope you’ll be able to join us for what should be a very special night. Put the date in your diary and I’ll be in touch with more details about the album and the launch show very soon… 

Best wishes, 

Adam

Hi folks, 

Hope you’re well. Just a quick note for all my Dutch friends out there to let you know about my upcoming trip to the Netherlands next month.  

I’ll be doing a 5 date tour around the North of the country, starting with a return visit to Peter en Leni’s in Steendam on Friday 11thOctober for a solo acoustic show at this lovely venue. On the Saturday I’ll be returning to another favourite of mine, Rue de la Gare in Emmen, for a late night full-band show where I’ll be joined by Dutch session collective ‘The Pact’ featuring Sietse Huisman on drums and Ronald Jonker on bass. I’ll then be heading to the far North for some more solo shows…Leeuwarden on the Sunday and finishing the trip on the island of Vlieland.  

Friday 11th October – Podium Café Peter en Leni, Steendam, 20:30 

Saturday 12th October – Rue de la Gare, Emmen (feat. The Pact), 23:00 

Sunday 13th October – Paddy O'Ryan, Leeuwarden, 17:00

Looking forward to catching up with some of you over there!

Hi folks, 

Following on from my last mail-out I’m sorry to say that the organisers of the Ocean City Blues N Jazz Festival in Plymouth have had to cancel the first day of the festival due to the severe weather forecast. It’s completely understandable but we’re gutted we won’t get to play there this year…apologies to any of you who were planning on coming. I believe they’re still going ahead with the Saturday and Sunday of the festival but we’ll have to wait till next year now! 

Don’t forget there are still a couple more opportunities to catch me with the band this month… 

Thursday 22nd  –  The Brit Bar, Weston-super-Mare, 8pm. 

Friday 30th  –  Mariners’ Hall, Beer (plus special guest Julian Piper), doors 7:30pm, tickets £8 in advance available here

Thanks to all of you who came along to the gigs in Sidmouth this week by the way! The weather nearly got the better of us on Tuesday too…but thanks for sticking it out! 

See you soon… 

Adam
