Upon hearing ‘Mama’s Big Whiskey Show,’ it’s impossible not to think of Jim Morrison and The Doors. Courtesy of North Carolina-based singer/songwriter and producer Adam Tarsitano, who performs under the moniker Adam + Attack by Fire, the rocky and avant-garde piece of music is deeply experimental and hypnotic. Featuring psychedelic basslines, upbeat keys, and Adam’s deep, commanding vocals that evoke a raw and primal intensity, ‘Mama’s Big Whiskey Show’ channels a timeless rock mystique that is simply irresistible.
While cryptically capturing the essence of a circus lion striving to please, Adam also mentions that he’d “rather let the listeners decide what the song is about”. And, at the end of the day, isn’t that the ultimate thrill of listening? The joy of discovering your own story within the sound and allowing it to become whatever you need at that moment.
Influenced by the big guns; David Bowie, The Beatles, The Kinks, and Cat Stevens, Adam + Attack by Fire has a knack for bridging the past and present. His latest offering delivers a sound that’s simultaneously familiar and revolutionary, as he forges his own path in the relentless and unforgiving music industry.
