Exceptional Musician

I hired Ade for my son’s high school graduation party this summer and he was a tremendous addition to the ambiance. He is gifted musician who is professional with a pleasant demeanor. Ade received many accolades and future inquiries for additional events which was no surprise. I especially appreciated that he assessed the audience and chose the appropriate songs. Honestly, I would have paid double the fee he charged.

Top Notch Performance!

Ade was such a hit at our anniversary party. He played a great mix of old and new. Very professional and down-to-earth. Everyone at the party kept complimenting his performance and asked how we got it in touch with him. A lot of people took his contact information for future parties. Wonderful voice, presence, and take on the classics. Do not hesitate to book Ade; you will be thrilled with the experience he provides for any type of gathering!

Excellent Evening

Ade was a wonderful addition to our party. His playlist was just perfect- . We were on a large deck and he modulated his music and voice so that it was audible but never too much. Everyone at the party loved Ade and we would definitely recommend him!

Excellent entertainer

Ade was such a delight. He played so many songs that fit our event perfectly without us even telling him. We found ourselves singing along to almost everything. He was not only a great guitarist, but he has a great voice and wonderful
Personality to boot! Ade stayed with us longer than we even planned and kept on entertaining us well into the evening. We felt comfortable with him right away and we couldn’t have asked for a better overall experience. If you’re questioning hiring him for your event, don’t hesitate- do it now, you won’t be disappointed!
Thank you so much !

Professional, Personable & Party Perfect!

Our event was perfect because Ade sounded amazing, and was so responsive and fun with our guests. It was a small garden party and weather was going to be iffy but he was ready to start on time and a pro throughout. Our friends and family all wanted his information, so book him while you can :)!.

Booking information

Price range: $400 and up

What to expect

Acoustic coffeehouse-style renditions of all the most popular songs from the 60s, 70s up until now from classic rock, country, pop, jazz, reggae, etc. Easy listening for relaxation and blending in to provide a nice enjoyable sound.

He is not your average singer- songwriter. Ade Adu has a smooth voice that has the sound of Bob Marley, Dave Matthews, Seal, John Mayer, and Richie Havens. Although he sings a broad range of genres including dance, hip- hop, reggae, rock, euro- beat, contemporary Christian rock he isn’t limited too any genre. He has done rock, hip-hop, R&B, reggae, and even jazz on his acoustic guitar.

Additional booking notes

A quarter-inch input for my guitar as well and a microphone and boom microphone stand.
