Adelaide is a canvas of melody & rhythm that depicts the melding
of heart-break and unwavering determination to break the chains
of life in a 21st century run-down industrial rust belt town/frozen
tundra, laced with hope, love and faith. The songs written on the
band’s debut release ‘Overtired & Ill Prepared’,
were written in the dark basement of an abandoned house without
heat in the coldest winter months of 2003. It was recorded in the
heart of the old, windowless Heinz pickle factory under flickering
fluorescent lights. The band’s music reflects the Hope that
carries the five through the trials of the human experience, and
seeks to resonate with the fragility of it’s listeners amidst
the worlds expectations to be strong and self-sufficient. Hailing
from Buffalo, NY, Adelaide is full of promise and anticipation for
the music lover. Their live performance is gripping and implies
to those watching that they should expect more from bands that they
have paid hard-earned money to see. They demand a captive audience.
The band displays an authentic interest in their listeners that
brings a refreshing glance of the humanity and humility in a hard
working musical artist who truly realizes that without the fans,
there is no-one to play for. They are passionate and driven. They
are a relevant musical voice in the noise of today’s impersonal
faux-teenage angst anthems and recycled middle-school love poem
ballads. They seek to restore faith to those who will receive it,
and to love those who are unloved. The future of this band will
be nothing short of resilient. To quote the Reading Rainbow: “…don’t
take my word for it…” Listen for yourself.
