The Adam Ezra Group has made appearances with the Goo Goo Dolls, Guster, Aerosmith, Modest Mouse, Jason Mraz, DeSol, Blackalicious, Spearhead, The Donnas, Josh Kelley, Carbon Leaf, The Wailers, The Samples, Pete Seeger, Braddigan (from Dispatch), Edwin Mccain, The Pat McGee Band, and many more.
Ezra considers himself an experientialist as much as a musician or songwriter. Whether it's living out of a van, farming in Canada, relief work in Kosovo, student in South Africa, kitchen hand or carpenter, teacher, lacrosse coach, or traveler, Adam manages to cram it all into the music, always challenging our perspective and often teetering somewhere between the ballsy rocker and sensitive poet. He currently resides in a cramped, poorly insulated basement in Somerville, MA and incessantly writes songs.
Live, the group is engaging, lyrically thought provoking, and rocking. Adam will sweat on you. You'll dance while learning about senate processes and pondering the absurdities of war. He'll play the harmonica. Plus, there is a guy named Turtle that'll make you shake your butt. There is a definite "feel good vibe" to the show.
"Holy ****!" Adam exclaimed enthusiastically when asked how it was going in the studio. The New CD is due out in the spring. The definition of a prolific songwriter, Adam is constantly bringing new tunes to the table. Hooky songs with lilting melodies and catchy choruses. Acoustic, roots based soul pop music. If it were possible, the new CD would have 107 tracks.
The band has toured the country and headlined sold out shows in Boston.
Their music has also been featured on MTV's reality series The Real World: Chicago, VH1's Driven: Dave Matthews, VH1's Summer's End Concert Special (2003), Unparalleled Productions' "Lost Season Freeheel Ski Film", and "Dynamite" (off Tumble Down Slow) was featured on Dale Earnhardt Jr's recent DVD.
The group routinely plays benefit shows to raise money for causes such as cancer research, hurricane relief, children at risk, and many more.
They have played major events such as the US Snowboarding Championships (2005 & 2006), ESPN's Winter X-Games, Fifa Women's World Cup, the Boston Red Sox Katrina Benefit at the Tweeter Center Boston, and Budweiser's True Music Tailgate Concert Series at Dave Matthews/G-Love and Allman Bros/Moe. concerts.
The Album Tumble Down Slow was nominated for 2004's Local Album of the Year by the Boston Music Awards. A year later, Adam was nominated for the the best singer / songwriter award.
The Group is vocalist Abbie Barrett, long lost cousin and keyboardist Josh Gold (formerly of Wheat, Soulwork, and others), bassist Rob Soper, percussionist Jeff "Turtle" Goulart (formerly of Planet Groove, Brides of Jesus, and others), and drummerTom Arey.
