Adam has performed at the Icicle Creek music festival in Washington, the Mozart festival in San Luis Obispo, and the Hardly-Strictly-Bluegrass festival in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. Adam is a member of the Modern Mandolin Quartet, and performs regularly with the group Jimmy Chicken-Pants, and singer-songwriter AJ Roach.
