In this episode of The Jazz Flyte Podcast, host Darrell welcomes the prolific guitarist and producer, Adam Hawley. Known for his trailblazing work in the contemporary jazz world, Adam has notched 16 Billboard #1 hits and played alongside legends like Maurice White, Jennifer Lopez, and The Manhattan Transfer. 

Adam reflects on his early start, touring at age 11, and how a college professor opened the door for him to tour with The Manhattan Transfer—an opportunity that led to playing at the Kennedy Center in front of 5,000 people. He shares stories from the road, including an unforgettable encounter with Miley Cyrus, and the experience of playing with Sheila E.

Adam dives deep into his creative process, discussing how he pushes for new sounds, the importance of time management, and the challenges of writing music, even when it doesn't result in a hit. A multi-instrumentalist, Adam also explains how he juggles guitar, piano, and bass while running his own record label. 

Listeners will also get a glimpse into his personal life, including his family and the upcoming release of new music. With upcoming tour dates and a wealth of experience, Adam’s insights into the music industry are invaluable for aspiring musicians and fans alike.
