Adrian West Band at Pianofight

Ask Adrian what kind of music The Adrian West Band plays and he'll say "Yes." Or if he's feeling cocky, he'll say "Good." The longer answer: original acoustic rock that sounds like Paul Simon meets Dave Matthews meets Talking Heads. The band features vocal harmonies, guitar, electric violin, upright bass, drums, alto sax, and a bit of live "looping”. Born and raised in Montreal, Canada, Adrian West Band is an exciting group to watch. A gifted vocalist, Adrian moves effortlessly between guitar & violin, sometimes using live looping to add layers of sound and intrigue to his songs. With a knack for language that's simple yet poetic, he's not afraid to tackle difficult topics in his songwriting; Safe Streets tells an allegory about police violence, Close Your Eyes laments the beauty bias that pervades in the mass media, while Senses entreats you to appreciate your senses while you can. But Adrian doesn't take any of this stuff too seriously; his lyrics belie a sense of hope and a touch of whimsy. Add harmonies, a killer rhythm section and a wailing alto sax and you've got yourself one helluva sweet-sounding band. ------------------------- PIANOFIGHT’S NOT JUST A THEATER, IT’S ALSO A RESTAURANT AND BAR! ★★★★½ on Yelp ★★★★½ on Google ★★★★★ on Facebook _“Reasonably priced New American bites and cocktails in an unpretentious setting” - Zagat_ _“The best party spot in the neighborhood” - The Bay Bridged_ _“A hot SF scene” - SF Chronicle_ This show takes place in our restaurant [https://www.pianofight.com/menu].
