Adam Michael Neely (born 1988[4]) is an American bassist, YouTuber, and composer. His YouTube channel is described as containing "music theory, music cognition, jazz improvisation, musical performance technique, musicology and memes".[5][6][7] He also creates "Gig Vlogs", which give insight into his life as a professional musician in New York City and around the world.[8] As a musician, he performs as a solo artist, as a session musician, and as a member of a number of New York City-based ensembles, including the electro-jazz duo Sungazer (along with drummer Shawn Crowder), and the jazz bands Adam Neely's Jazz School and Aberdeen.
Education
Adam Neely graduated from Berklee College of Music with a B.A in Jazz Composition in 2009[2] and in 2012, received a Masters of Music in Jazz Composition from The Manhattan School of Music as directed under Jim McNeely.[9] He was awarded the Herb Alpert ASCAP Young Jazz Composer award in 2012 and 2015[6][10][11] as well as the Jerome Fund commission prize in 2014, for his work "Exigence".[12]
Career
Neely appeared on the BIMM podcast EP.8 to discuss his beginnings in music and approach to creating content.[13] He discussed bass and the role of social media with YouTube bass educator Scott Devine in this podcast.[14] He has also been interviewed by Music U.[15]
Neely is a founding member of the electro-jazz and electronic dance music (EDM) band Sungazer, created in 2014.[16] He regularly performs with rock band Bright and Loud, indie-soul group Jae Soto, his large ensemble Mass Extinction Event, the "8-bit big band", and a number of singer-songwriters based in New York.[6]
On May 18–20, 2019, Adam Neely, as a member of the band Aberdeen, was hired by the United States Department of State to go to Kyrgyzstan on a three-day tour that included two concerts and a workshop. The first concert was held at the music venue Ololohaus Erkindik in Bishkek. The band was joined by the Kyrgyzstani band Choro in a collaborative concert of American rock music. They then held a workshop and masterclass for underprivileged and young students at first the A. Novoi School, located in the Osh region in southwest Kyrgyzstan, and then a select group of students within the Access Microscholarship program at the Osh Regional Library. They completed their ambassadorship with a concert at School #29 in the capital of Bishkek.[17][18]
