Adam Green. Основатель про-фолк группы The Moldy Peaches, ныне являющийся сольным артистом. Вскоре после её развала - один из идеологов ещё недавно новомодного (в начале 2000-ых) движения антифолк. Эдакой альтернативы всей этой около-экономической шумихе. Мягкого, без противодействия, противопоставления почти субкультуры реальности топ-менеджеров, кредитных линий, дорожных чеков, fast-food и fast-art (fast-movie, fast-book, и, наконец, fast-music).
Данное экономическое/технологическое диссидентство может роднить с более мягкой частью “бардовского” движения - каким-нибудь осовремененным Булатом Окуджавой, только неофолковым и born in United States of Europe/America.
Тексты Адама Грина интересно не только слышать в песнях, но и просто читать. Сочиняются они в буквальном смысле на ходу (посредством всегда приготовленного диктофона). Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
Adam Green (born May 28, 1981 in Mount Kisco, New York) is an American singer-songwriter.
Green attended Emerson College briefly in 1998 before leaving to concentrate on his music, going on to co-found the anti folk group The Moldy Peaches with Kimya Dawson. In 2004 The Moldy Peaches went on hiatus and both Green and Dawson embarked on solo careers.
Green released several albums on Rough Trade Records. Among his better known songs are "Jessica" (about singer Jessica Simpson), "Novotel", "Friends of Mine", "Dance with Me", "Carolina" and "Emily", and, in Britain, his cover of The Libertines track "What a Waster".
Prior to Jacket Full of Danger in 2006, all of Green's albums had been released on the 22nd of the month. His latest album was released on March 18, 2008 and is titled Sixes & Sevens. Titles include "Morning After Midnight", "Twee Twee Dee", and "Drowning Head First", the latter a duet between Green and his girlfriend.
In January 2008, The Moldy Peaches began having a resurgence in popularity, due to their music being included in the hit indie film Juno. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
