I wonder what it is that Paul Adams doesn't do? He's is a Luthier (He has built instruments for Daryl Hall, members of Stevie Wonder's
band and others.), his writing and Poetry is beautiful, he plays a vast array of exotic instruments, and has eight critically acclaimed albums
out in about 5 different genres of music. Oh, and he produces all this stuff in his home studio. “I'm no genius,” says Adams. “I'm just
fascinated with everything. It's difficult being musically varietal in life as it can confuse an audience. But, I guess it's my path. This is a
revolutionary time for musicians. Technology allows us to make our own musical decisions as to mood and expression. Like a painter, we
have freedom of choice. Management can’t tell us what to compose or produce, and we even do our own cover art - a very organic. process.”

Years ago Adams had a tragic accident resulting in the loss of fingers from his fretting hand. The ends were rebuilt with grafts from his leg
and he says, “It made me re approach the guitar in a different way. Having this limitation caused me to phrase more uniquely. I once had
a popular syndicated radio program call me about my music. They said they really felt I had a way of being unique, and placed my album in
the TOP 5 of the year. My injury was largely responsible for my odd way of approaching music. Limitation has a way of propelling one
beyond preconceived barriers.”

Adams study of Ethnomusicology birthed a love of unique musical instruments. “I have a fair collection of anything that makes noise. My
array of flutes inspired me into releasing my Flute Meditations For Dreaming Clouds album, and it was successful. The Satellite networks
picked up on it, and I met a lot of new fans”. Adams just released another Flute CD called HEAVENS. “I feel very very good about it. I
was able to incorporate more exotic instruments such as the Chinese Hulusi. It’s perhaps more unified in mood.”

Then again, Adams will jump into a completely different groove as he did with a sideline band The Neurons he started with Ray Charles
arranger David Hoffman. “This was a chance to utilize my instruments in a jazzier way, blending world music, and looped grooves.”
Improvisation and eclecticism might be two descriptive words to use. “It was gratifying performing this music as a live multi media event
with the Illinois Ballet.”

Throughout his career, his albums have gathered international acclaim in many different areas such as World Fusion, New Age, Ambient,
Jazz, Native American, and utilizing his poetic readings. And he's not done. “I have singer songwriter material I am going to be releasing.
I think it's my strongest stuff.” I have never experienced not having at least three albums in my head at the same time.
I'm lucky to have never encountered that artistic block everyone fears.” Along the way Adams composed commercial music for Chrysler, Caterpillar, Motorola, Chrysler, Subaru and others.

His most important inspiration has come from working many years with the mentally ill, and utilizing his music with this population.
“Working with them has been the most artistically rich environment I could have imagined. Where else could I have seen such a deep and
vast display of the human condition? The dynamic is extremely difficult at times, but this is where one finds that deep well of the human
experience. They are the real people, forced to deal with the nucleus of their own sanity on a daily basis. They are hero's”.
