I'll beef up my EPK soon. For now, this is strictly a submission to 30A Songwriters Festival.

I grew up in Destin, FL and have been playing gigs here off and on since about age 17 (I'm currently 36). Originally from, Oxford, MS, my folks moved us to Destin in 1980. I'm essentially a beach kid. I've been a regular attendee of the 30A Songwriters Festival, but this is the first year I decided to make a submission to be an Artist. This Summer was the first time in a very long time that I played regular gigs and it was exhilarating to be back out there (I also play/sing in my church band on Sundays when I'm in town). Unfortunately for me, the Destin tourists don't really care to hear original music. I can slip an original in there every now and then, but I'm playing other people's music to about 95%.

I only submitted three songs as I'm sure you all have quite a bit of material to cover. I'll keep this part short and sweet too. No drawn out pretension. The thought I'd like to leave you with is that I think this festival is perfect for Artists like myself. People come to see the big names, sure, but as a spectator, I LOVE seeing kindred spirits who are talented and unknown (and THRILLED to work hard in an entry level arena I might add).

Thank you for your consideration,
Bo Adams
