 Adam
Levy had been playing the Bay Area jazz club circuit for
years before hooking up to play guitar in singer/songwriter
Norah Jones' band. But Adam's first high-profile gig came
when was offered to audition for another popular singer-songwriter,
Tracy Chapman. "The Tracy Chapman connection came about
when I was recommended for the gig by a friend. I auditioned,
never dreaming I'd get the gig. But I did. I played with
her for a year, 1994-5, and am featured on her 'New Beginning'
album." Since then, Adam has played with the likes
of John Zorn, Joey Baron, and Sex Mob.. that is until he
met Norah Jones. "I
met Norah three years ago in a bar, in New York City, when
she first came to New York from Dallas, Texas. We had some
friends in common, we had musical interests in common, and
we clicked together nicely." Adam has been playing
in Norah Jones' band ever since. Adam has also started his
own Lost Wax Records
label as an outlet for his own projects.
