Artist description Adam Pringle lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Adam plays a variety of soft rock to rock and roll, blues, jazz, and classical. The majority of his music, so far, is love songs because his first cd, Piano in the Wind, as the title track states, is a story of his life (an open book), somewhat compact, but nonetheless, it is a story.

Artist History Adam started playing piano when he was 4 and writing music when he was 14. He has now collected a variety of different types of songs, and styles, ranging from honky tonk to rock and roll to soft jazz. Adam was born in St. Louis, Michigan on the 13th of September in 1980. He was born into a musical family where his father too is a piano player. His parents owned a music store until 1997. Fittingly, the name of the store was Pringle's Music Co. Then he moved to Saginaw, Michigan in May of 1998, his graduation year. He graduated from Michigan Lutheran Seminary. In high school there, Adam participated in many, many different things: Talent Shows, parties, VIP meetings and much more. Now that he is in college, he is constantly found playing in coffee shops and restaraunts around the midwest. Adam has played in many different cities in the Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan area. He is currently attending Martin Luther College in New Ulm, Minnesota, where he will be furthering his musical education. At Martin Luther College, he toured coffee shops with his band "The Seven Day Shirts" which are no longer. The band was named after it's departed drummer, Brian Vannieuwenhoven, who before one concert wore his shirt for seven days straight! I love you Brian! Adam has only begun recording. His musical history will be growing with hopefully, the number of listeners.
