About Lincoln Adler

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of first strong memories I have is my parents taking me to see the movie Woodstock. Sly and the Family Stone absolutely blew my mind. I asked for some money so I could get my first LP…Stand. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Sly & The Family Stone, Stand! (Deluxe Edition) Sonny Rollins, Saxophone Colossus Rudy Van Gelder Remaster Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life These 3 albums were some of the first records I owned. I played them until they sounded all scratchy, memorizing lines, singing along, dancing around the room. They all had profound influence on me as an artist and a human being. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Oh Freedom (feat. Lydia Walker)” This song comes from way back. It’s about not accepting a life of oppression and forced labor. It’s about striving for that which we all love and deserve - Freedom. It’s part of my new project…please stay tuned for more songs on the way. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Recently I had the opportunity to record and perform with the amazing Taj Mahal. What a beautiful, soulful experience! Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? This is such a moving target when you’re an artist! There are always more interesting directions to explore, more deep combinations of music to play with. I reckon it’s like being a chef, where everywhere you travel, you find new ingredients.
