Adam Puddington is one of Almonte, Ontario’s golden sons, and he wears the legacy proudly. Rural Canadiana seeps into his songs, bringing the curious beauty of rivers, wildlife, rosaries and trains. While his sensibilities are firmly rooted in Ottawa Valley soil, maritime themes in songs like “Deer in the Headlights” and “Footprints” hint at Puddington’s ties to Canada’s east coast.
While attending university in Halifax, Adam found musical kin in the local music scene, performing and recording with the city’s most innovative musicians. East coast alt-country popsters The Guthries backed Adam on his debut recording, "Can’t Sleep This One Off", with members Brian Murray (drums/banjo), Dale Murray (guitar/pedal steel), and Serge Samson (bass/mandolin) joining Ian Mosher (organ/piano) on this, Puddington’s sophomore effort. Adam’s deftly-crafted songs have been covered by many artists who have the pleasure of hearing his work, including East Coast roots-rocker Matt Mays. Adam is also a contributing lyricist on May's latest solo offering “When the Angels Make Contact”.
