During high school, Adam began to dream of rock domination. He wrote and played and sang and wrote and then formed Cotton Sidewalk. Although it was early days, the music did get peoples’ attention (this may have also been due to Adam getting naked at gigs).
As Cotton matured, it secured many great support slots including Betchadupa, Augie March, Evermore, The Superjesus, Bob Evans, Machine Gun Fellatio, End Of Fashion, Bluebottle Kiss, The Pictures, Old Man River, Dave McCormack and more.
2008 saw Cotton Sidewalk pack up and move their Proganthemelodorock from Newcastle to Melbourne. This move brought about many changes and rights of passage, the most important of these being the release of their album “Evil Versus People” and the securing of Cotton’s current and ultimate line-up.
You see, at heart, Cotton Sidewalk has always been about going to any length to bring an awesome rock experience to the crowd at their shows. In fact, the job is deemed incomplete should anyone leave with their face un-melted.
In the making of “Evil Versus People” the mission of translating this energetic live show onto LP was undertaken. The result was an album of epic proportions that effectively opened the Cotton Sidewalk heart to the world. The album was released through a series of sell-out shows in Melbourne (The Evelyn), Sydney (Oxford Arts Factory) and Newcastle (The Cambridge) in 2010. The album’s release was also marked by two singles “Fight Your Way” and “Feet Teeth and Hands”, which gained good support from Triple J’s Richard Kingsmill and other good community radio stations.
“…man, what a great record. top-notch songwriting and musicianship make this one of the best records i've worked on recently. From light and pretty to heavy and dark, this record covers all the bases.” Ed Rose (record producer), www.edrose.com.
“…some of the most honest and unaffected vocal delivery in recent memory. I defy anyone not to sing along…” Stephen Bisset, Reverb Magazine.
“Just letting you guys (and girl) know, you're f*#$ing awesome. And even if the Sidewalk was to end tomorrow, I'd be happy knowing that I share a part of your history from listening to your music and loving every moment. But I sincerely hope it doesn't end tomorrow, and that you have plenty more epic, amazing music to share with the world, and with me. Keep up the fantastic work!” Nick Hopkins (from Townsville), Facebook.
