Like I have said many times I love all kinds of music. Sometimes I am surprised what I fine. You may never know what’s out there and there are some artists that are like ear candy. Yes ear candy! Having the internet makes it so much easier to find new or most of the time new to me music. Unlike the 90’s where I actually had to go to the used CD store to find new to me music.
A few months ago I was cruising the internet for some instrumental music. I love that stuff because I love to just listen and not think. Or listen and create. I really wanted to find something that I haven’t heard before. Yes classical music is great to listen to but I have heard all that before. I was really looking from something that I can’t describe but wonderful at the same time.
Then I found it or should I say him. I found Adam Hurst. What I have noticed is a lot of people play the violin but it’s a little harder to find cellist. I have Spotify and all his music is there. I went into a listening frenzy. I wanted to hear it all and I did. One song struck me in my soul. You know that is a great song when that happens. I wish it was longer but that is what the repeat button is for. I love his song The Secret which is the first song on the album with the same name.
When I listen to this song it stops me in my tracks. It’s so serene like nothing I have ever heard before. Indescribable! I just recently had the idea to look him up on YouTube to see if he played any of songs live. When I watch him on the YouTube you can see his expression when he plays. When someone plays that well and creates beautiful music makes the listener feel what the artist feels. It’s wonderful! Adam Hurst does that in my opinion.
I really wanted to add this YouTube video of him playing. So I asked him in an email. And on the same day he responded! He told me I could add this video to my blog. And that he is glad I like that song. You don’t know but I am impressed just by this email! I thought for sure he would make me wait. Thank you Adam for letting me share your song and talent!
What’s great about Adam Hurst is all his songs he made himself. Now that is talent. Also you know it’s him just by looking at him. He always wearing a nice hat which most of the time is black. He dresses in all black as well. I wish I could ask him why. I think it would be a great story to hear.
Unfortunately there isn’t a whole of information about Adam Hurst that I could find. I wish there was more. I just want to know more about him. Like why did he start playing the cello? Or who influenced him to play the music he plays? You know basic things like that. I also wish he would play near Wisconsin I would love to see him. I would drive out of the state maybe Illinois to see him. Maybe in the future.
If you like to listen to some really great music, you have to check out Adam Hurst. Maybe he has a song that stops you in your tracks.
