I've been very busy....
Lots of things going on these days.... shows coming up in Austin, New York, Philly... and back to the UK and France this summer... been writing many new songs, many of them stranger and more personal than you are used to hearing from me... been writing poems, many of them too mean or dirty to show... look out for new recordings and a new website by the end of this year...

the Deli review 6/27
The link to the review is the Deli Magazine
And here's what it says:
One of the first things that strike me about Ladyfingers is just to what extent lead vocalist and songwriter Adam Weiner can sing. Listening to “My Prom,” several times I had to double check that there is only one singer on this album, because Weiner manages to variously channel Elvis, Screaming Jay Hawkins, and Dion with incredible ease and fluidity. Somehow, through all this polyvalence he still manages to have his own voice. The vocal shadings are tailored perfectly to each song on the album, where pieces range from Tom Waits-influenced polkas to drunkenly heavy minor blues and raucous banjo-driven country punk. The Tom Waits influence is underscored by the appearance of bass clarinetist Colin Stetson – who has played on several of Waits’s albums – on the track “Real Live Boy.” - Handlebar Jack Updated:07:49:29 PM 06/27/07
