A Cincinnati native, Adcock was named the city's "Best Singer/Songwriter" and "Best Rock Vocalist." His dynamic voice and rhythmic guitar combine to create powerful, stripped-down versions of his recorded material. His most recent release is "From Silence and Joy." Adcock is also known as an enchanting storyteller who often has his audiences in tears of laughter with his tales of life on the road. In the past year, he performed at more than 100 venues in 39 states.

"This guy would sound great in any venue!" says Pete Robinson of Epic Records, who is known for discovering the Dave Matthews Band.

Adcock's appearance is free and open to the public. For more information, call the Lane University Center Information Desk at (301) 687-4411.
