Adam Ross

Adam Ross has become a lynchpin of the ever-fertile Scottish scene. As a songwriter, he is deceptively gentle: his melodies scurry, bound or lope along, sometimes jaunty, sometimes suffused with a light melancholy, while his lyrics are always witty and frequently biting. “Bring On the Apathy”, his third album under his own name, is his most mature and rewarding yet.

Berkeley Street, the lead single and video from Adam Ross’ forthcoming third solo album, Bring On The Apathy, finds Ross sifting through Glasgow memories with characteristic lyricism and warmth. The single carries both the intimacy of return and the sting of passing time. Accompanied by a stellar ensemble, it’s one of his richest recordings yet.

Littoral Zone feels like a landmark album in Adam Ross’s career, a kind of synthesis of the most impressive elements of his full band and solo work. In a fair world, this literate, funny, humane album would cement his status as a national treasure.

Filmed at Abdie & Dunbog Parish Church in Lindores, Adam Ross has shared a live video session for his latest single Apogee and tickets have now gone on sale for Littoral Zone album launch on 30th May at Mono in Glasgow.

On his new album Littoral Zone, Adam Ross returns to his chamber-pop influences–listen to his latest single, Apogee, an optimistic evocation of the strength of love.

Watch the accompanying video for Dry Soul, the stunning new single from solo songwriter (and frontman of Randolph’s Leap) Adam Ross and featuring guest violin from Pedro Cameron (Man of the Minch).

Staring At Mountains is a strangely visceral album on which we get to hear Adam Ross at his most open. It provides the richest and most detailed snapshot yet of the songwriting and thought processes…of one of Scotland’s most talented singers and songwriters.

Released on the 14th January via Olive Grove Records, watch a short film on the making of ‘Staring at Mountains’, the solo debut album from Adam Ross of Randolph’s Leap, which was filmed at Todhead Lighthouse and Kinneff Old Church in Aberdeenshire.

Our Song of the Day comes from Adam Ross of Scottish indie band Randolph’s Leap. Cairngorms is taken from his solo debut album ‘Staring at Mountains’ that will be released via Olive Grove Records in January 2022.
