About the Song

The power of Songpull! Adam claims that the only thing that inspired this song was getting a text message from Dan Fritz at 5:17pm stating that there's a Songpull tonight at 7pm...interested? He quickly grabbed a guitar and crafted this song Don't Let Go. He says that normally he doesn't write as much from inspiration as he does the words that just come out while he's playing guitar. This seems hard to believe after listening to this song.

About the Songwriter

I've been playing music since I was 6 years old.... Started playing drums in church when I was 7. At age 15 I started playing with a band called Flick. We were signed to Columbia Records 6 months after we formed. We made an ep, 2 lps, had some songs on a couple different movie soundtracks and toured in 6 other countries. I had some of the best times of my life with those guys. You couldn't pay me enough to give up some of those memories. The last record we made was with Gil Norton (foo fighters, counting crows, pixies, etc..) What an incredible experience! The best compliment I've ever had musically came from that guy. Flick lasted for about 8 or 9 years. Absolutely some of the best times in my life. Towards the end of Flick I had started writing more on the side. So, fast forward to now... I'm in my mid-late 20's working a desk job. One of my favorite things to do now is to sit down with a guitar and write. next to that would be recording.
