DAVID ADOM
"A modern jazz singer, with a black and white flavor."
David Adom, the crooner, is the Parisian ambassador of joyful and popular jazz.
Singer, guitarist and composer, he surprises with his energy and vocal ease. A joyful and attractive jazz, which appeals to fans of the genre,
as to all those who discover this style of music!
Also good in “French swing” version with gypsy guitars
or “American jazz band” with acoustic piano, drums and brass,
it is the energy and virtuosity of this singer that thrills us.
When listening, the charm of his voice operates through the communicative sweetness of his timbre,
supported by astonishing vocal ease.
His swing is carried by a double repertoire:
the classics of the genre and his personal compositions.
Unique in their genre, David Adom's interpretations do not resemble the style of
Jamie Cullum with its pop jazz resonances, nor the more Broadway style of
Michael Bublé, or even less to the extraordinary performances of Harry Connick Junior.
Here we discover the voice of a sincere and passionate “singing madman”,
a new modern jazz singer but with a black and white flavor.
