Adam Green is an American singer-songwriter and musician hailed for his wry wit and deep melodic sensibilities that echo through the indie rock landscape. He first made his mark as one half of the anti-folk duo The Moldy Peaches, alongside Kimya Dawson, a band renowned for their idiosyncratic sounds and offbeat humor, which reached a wider audience with their song "Anyone Else But You" featured in the hit movie "Juno" (2007). Born on May 28, 1981, in Mount Kisco, New York, Green embarked on a solo career following the band's hiatus in 2004 and has since cultivated a dedicated following with releases that blend cunning lyricism with elements of folk, baroque pop, and quirky rock.

Throughout his solo career, Adam Green has consistently charmed and intrigued fans with a discography that showcases his evolution as a songwriter and artist. His album "Friends of Mine" (2003), is particularly notable for its earnest storytelling and heartfelt melodies. With records like "Gemstones" (2005), "Sixes & Sevens" (2008), and more recently "Engine of Paradise" (2019), Green continued to experiment with his sound, while maintaining the unique voice that sets him apart in the music industry. His projects often exude a timeless quality, playfully blending the contemporary with the traditional. Not contented with musical ventures alone, Green is also a gifted visual artist and filmmaker, exemplified by his feature film "Aladdin" (2016) – an inventive, modern take on the classic tale, which showcases his multifaceted creative prowess. With his artistic output often characterized by an offbeat sense of humor and heartfelt candidness, Adam Green remains a captivating figure in the modern musical tapestry.
