   Crafting his career on the island of Maui Hawaii, Adam has had the pleasure of performing with acts like Maroon 5, Angelo Moore of Fishbone, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Mat Costa, Erin Smith, Paula Fuga, The Itals, The Apostle, Mandi Seekings, Anuhea and Paris Hilton. He has played some of musicÕs most sought after venues such as The Playboy Mansion, HollywoodÕs Knitting Factory and The Marilyn Monroe Mansion as well as major stages on the islands of Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Oahu, Kauai, and the honorable island of California.

   Adam Bowen has music in his blood. He comes from long lines of musicians from both sides of the family (great grandparents Neil and Annie Morrison were Classically trained opera singers with the Dundee Operatic Society). Son of international recording artist and Rock Opera writer Patricia Watson, Adam grew up on the road learning the tricks of the trade from direct experience. From learning how to draw ÒPicasso paintingsÓ with Michael Schenker (Scorpions) at the age of 5 to hanging out with Slash (Guns & Roses) pool side in Maui at age 11.

   Playing in bands like the Ukulele driven rock of The Easy, the sultry Latin Hawaiian drive of Lawa, the strange undulating middle eastern rhythms of Quadraphonic, the funked-out classics of The Afrodesiacs, LAÕs pumpinÕ rock nÕ roll band High Octane, the silliness of Beef Tower, and the diversity of hosting the longest running Open Jam in Maui, Adam fits into just about any situation with confidence and professionalism.

   Adam has played many roles in many bands: front man, rhythm section, backing vocals, graphic designer, sound man, lighting tech, promoter, open jam host and tambourine player as well as recording engineer and producer for a handful of original acts.

   Playing all forms of basses and guitars from standup to fret-less and from acoustic to screaming electric, Adam has the ability as a fast learner with a good ear to chameleon himself into many diverse musical genres. Also playing drums and percussion, making and sequencing beats and samples and dabbling in all kinds of sonic possibilities, AdamÕs genuine love for sound proves apparent.
