Rian Adkinson (born 22 March 1980) is a singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist from Atlanta, Georgia. During his career, Adkinson has been featured in Prog Magazine, Billboard Magazine, Free Times Columbia, Creative Loafing, Stomp and Stammer and more. Adkinson is a PRS endorsed artist and is known for using the S2 Mira Antique White and the S2 Custom 22 SH. ==History== Adkinson released his debut EP ''Disasterpiece'' in August of 2004, his first venture as a solo singer/songwriter after many years playing drums in punk, rock, funk and progressive rock bands. Over time, Adkinson built a loyal following throughout the southern US, playing in college towns and opening for Lovedrug, Patterson Hood (Drive-by Truckers), Edwin McCain, Copeland and more. In 2007, Adkinson released his second EP, ''Bipolaroid'' moving away from the acoustic based pop of ''Disasterpiece'' and into electronic music with more progressive leanings. Shortly after the release of ''Bipolaroid'', Adkinson embarked on a 180-date tour of the United States. In 2012, Adkinson began work on another EP, ''1984'' with producer/engineer Brandon Ham at Red Sparrow Studios in Wilson, North Carolina. The sessions heralded the tracks 'Say Something', 'Diamond Girl' and 'Even Now'. It was during this same period that Adkinson traveled to Charleston Sound Studios in Charleston, South Carolina to record a new batch of songs. These sessions provided Adkinson with the hit song 'Cutthroat', which was featured in PROG magazine. In 2013, with the success of ''1984'' and the Charleston sessions, Adkinson began work on what was to become his first full length album, ''Villain'' with producer/engineer Brandon Ham. After 18 months in the studio writing and recording, Adkinson released ''Villain'' independently on September 22, 2014. The album was well received and has sold over 10,000 copies as of April 2015. In April 2015, Adkinson entered Seaboard Recording Studios in Columbia, South Carolina to record a new single ''Triangle/EON'', set to be released in Summer 2015 exlusively on 7" vinyl. These recording sessions marked the first time Adkinson recorded straight to tape in a purely analog studio. Adkinson will embark on the ''Secret Life of Villains'' tour later in 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rian Adkinson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
