Endorse Adam Holgate
  1. Review by James Graham
    starstarstarstarstar

    Adam is a one of a kind guitarist and bassist. He has honed his craft through years of dedication to music to develop a playing style unique to him. It's this signature style, that focusses on sensitivity of playing and emotional articulation of melody, that puts him above many other professional musicians. For his talent, professionalism and affability I can't recommend Adam enough.
