GRAMMY-nominated Nashville songwriter Adam Wright is a “wildly brilliant genius” according to Robert Earl Keen and “one of the best of the best songwriters and storytellers there is” according to Buddy Miller. Patty Griffin described his sound as “a direct descendant of that classic sounding yet fearless songwriting that came out of Nashville from the likes of Tom T Hall, Kris Kristofferson and many others of that earlier era.” Having penned songs for Garth Brooks, Brandy Clark, Sierra Hull, Alan Jakson, Randy Newman, Lee Ann Womack, Hailey Whitters and more, Wright is a lyrical force to be reckoned with.
Today, Wright steps out of the writer’s room and into the spotlight with a new single of his own called “Crawlspace.” Produced by Frank Liddell and recorded with musicians Glenn Worf (bass), Matt Chamberlain (drums), Park Chisolm (keys/guitar), the raucous rocker conjures the careening energy of 60s-era The Who if they recorded in Nashville, and provides the first taste of Wright’s upcoming solo project, which will be released as four SIDES, culminating with a full album release later this year. The epic 18-track collection is a masterclass in songwriting, exploring the lives of alcoholic poets, arrogant cowboys, estranged fathers, trick shot gamblers and one Leonardo da Vinci, while chronicling deception at sea, murder in the goldmines, the curse of creativity, and much more.

When it comes to the story behind the upcoming album, Wright says: “The story is there is no story. I didn’t get sober. There was no breakup. I didn’t awaken to some new awareness. I’m just a lyric junkie with a melody addiction. And this is rock bottom.”
Adam Wright will release SIDE 1 from the forthcoming album on March 6, with subsequent SIDES to follow. For more information, please visit https://www.adamwrightsongs.com/.
