Rich Adams: Vocals and Guitar

Since an early age, Rich Adams has had an extreme enthusiasm and passion for music. From piano lessons as a child to the present, the intensity and drive to create music has been one of the consistent touchstones of his life.

After a 5+ year stint as the lead singer/guitarist for the band Frog Hollow, Rich took a step back from performing live to explore other interests. It was during this time he composed the scores for several award-winning independent films including the IFC Documentary, Failure and the 2005 National Canadian Film Awards Best Feature, The Overlookers.

In addition to composing duties, Rich has lent his production talents in the studio with bands like Uchechi (featuring ex-Ours drummer, Darren Verpeut), New Vintage (featuring The Misery Loves, Mark Mullane), Dollhouse Architects (featuring Patrick Harmon and Paul Frick from The Party Faithful), Adam Masterson and most recently, Prana. In 2008, Rich launched the independent label, Fare Square Music with Drew Eckmann (Live@Drew's Concert Series).

In 2009 he reunited with old friends Dan Turdo and Eric Pseja to work through original material for a few live shows. From the initial jam sessions, it was evident the trio share a musical bond and have formed Xeromore as a means to explore their music ideas.
