Rocking a classic guitar, under tousled hair, and behind vintage shades, Adam Masterson represents a timeless ideal of what a Rockstar should be—yet he does so for a new age. Unabashedly embracing old school influences as he updates tradition with heaps of spirit and soul, he taps into the kind of magic we yearn for, but don’t get enough of.

In doing so, he emerges as an outlier built from his own design, bucking trends and emanating stadium-size charisma at the same time.

“You have the freedom to create yourself entirely,” he exclaims. “It’s the one place where there are no constraints. Music and poetry are the truest forms of magic I’ve encountered. Find out what sets you free and create yourself from there. ” He most certainly did...

Most importantly, he’s not afraid to “not fit in” on his 2020 independent EP, Delayed Fuse.

“I don’t fit in,” he affirms with a grin. “It’s my greatest blessing. If there was a musical niche, clique, or scene where I could’ve fit in, I would’ve gotten bored and probably quit a long time ago. All of the awkwardness and rejection makes being on stage the only place to be. It’s a gas,” he laughs.
