A Quick Q&A with Adrian

When did you first start playing music?

I first started playing guitar when I was 12 years old, and have been performing in front of people since I was 13 years old.

 

What brought you to Sound Pure?

When the opportunity came up for me to move halfway across the country to work at a high-end guitar shop, I jumped at the chance.

 

What gear is in your current rig?

 I love Neural DSP. For practice and recording, I use their plugins. For live use, I use the Nano Cortex.

 

Bands or projects now or in the past? 

 I was previously in the bands Nautilus Vs. Pangolin, OK Robot, and Pipebomb, among many others.

 

What’s on your personal bucket List?  

I would love to play guitar on every continent!

 

What record(s) have changed your life? 

“Exoplanet” by The Contortionist and “I Wish I Could Stay Here” by Basement are some of the most influential albums of my life.

 

What Sports Teams are you into, why?

I am a lifelong diehard Dallas Cowboys fan. Why? I ask myself that all the time.

 

What’s your least favorite thing to practice?

Boring songs! I don’t care how simple or difficult it is. As long as I’m having fun, I’m happy!
