For the last six years Adam has toured internationally with the Al Foster Quartet, during which time he formed a strong musical bond with bassist Doug Weiss and legendary drummer Al Foster. "Three Of A Mind," Adam's latest trio release featuring this group has been making big waves since its release in February 2015. The New York Times calls it "an eloquent dispatch from the heart of the contemporary piano trio tradition." Downbeat Magazine gave it a 4 star review and named it an Editor's pick in its March issue, calling it a "superb trio album which accomplishes the difficult task of sounding diverse yet cohesive."
