Original Music
Songwriting, recording, and muscial performance are a few of my greatest passions. I play guitar, piano, drums, bass guitar, and I sing. Please enjoy the following recordings of songs that I have written or performed.
Adam Mayer – In My Head
I recorded the below EP in 2004 for my high school senior project. The album was written and recorded in three weeks in my family’s home studio outside Baltimore, MD. I wrote all of the songs, composed and performed each of the musical parts, and recorded, mixed, and mastered each the of the songs myself. Click a song to play it, then right click “Download” and click “Save Link As…” to save the mp3.

American Heroes is a CD performed by Live Free, a band comprised of my Dad and myself, dedicated to our brave servicemen and women in Iraq and Afghanistan. The CD includes songs written or co-written and performed by my Dad and/or myself as well as voicemail messages left by people all over the country voicing their support for our troops.
