Sammy Adams Ft. Mike Posner

Sammy Adams has been musical for most of his life, playing piano since age 7. At age 11, he began to improvise with his piano playing, starting to create his own beats and melodies. He aspired to become a producer long before he ever considered becoming a rapper. Adams prides himself on being able to cross genres, allowing him to get back to his musical roots and experiment with other kinds of music to supplement his "hip-pop". Adams started recording songs on his Macbook in 2008 from his college dormitory room.

He performed at the music fesitval Lollapalooza in Chicago in August 2011. In late 2011, Adams signed with RCA Records of Sony. His next single, "Blow Up", tells about how he is back on the rise after the signing, following a stagnant period after his explosion onto the scene with Boston's Boy. Adams released the singles, "Blow Up" and "Summertime", in November 2011 and March 2012 respectively. "Only One" was Adams' first track to receive mainstream attention on the radio. "Only One" was later included in AT&T's 2012 Summer Olympic Games commercial featuring Alex Morgan.

On May 10th, Adams' premiered the lead single from his debut album along with its music video. The song is titled "LA Story" and features American singer Mike Posner while being produced by OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder. The song will be released to iTunes on May 28th, and to Mainstream Top 40 radio on June 4th.
