Adam Travis is an NYC-based Country / Americana artist.

Adam was born and raised in the blue collar suburbs of Philadelphia where music was immediately a part of everyday life. At a young age Adam was listening to endless Jerry Garcia solos with his deadhead dad and dancing around the house to his mother playing Billy Joel and Elton John songs on piano. By age 14, Adam himself was playing bass, piano, and saxophone, but everything changed when he started playing guitar.

In high school, Adam started singing and playing in a rock band like most rebellious teenagers do and it was at this time that he became a songwriter. It became his obsession. Instead of paying attention in class, Adam was writing lyrics and chords to work on as soon as he got home fromschool. He became inspired by artists like John Mayer, Jack Johnson, and Dave Matthews and saw them all in concert the summer before leaving for college.

In 2014, Adam began his journey at Berklee College of Music in Boston. He majored in songwriting and started a band called Adam Travis & The Soul, a jam band that fused reggae, rock, soul, and blues. He wrote songs about the beautiful chaos of youth—heartbreak, love, partying with friends, moving into the big city, and finding yourself. After graduation, Adam followed his group of friends and network of musicians to New York City.

Over the past decade, Adam has gotten in touch with his rock and blues roots, as well as developed a deep admiration for country / americana legends from the past and today. His influences range from Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Emmylou Harris to Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, and Tyler Childers. His songwriting has continued to mature and improve with every new song and his upcoming 2026 album will be a testament to that.
