Biography

Adam Kampf is a touring musician with nearly 20 years of practice behind the drum kit, boasting a deep wealth of multi-genre knowledge and experience. The progeny of professional musicians, Adam’s grandparents and mother influenced his musical upbringing from a young age with the sounds of Big Band and nineties Jazz Fusion. In his adolescence, Adam fell in love with Metal music and found himself very involved in the NYC underground scene, the city in which he was born and raised. Post High School, Adam relocated to South Florida to pursue collegiate Jazz and Production studies and immersed himself in the local gig scene, playing local bars, venues, and private events. After establishing himself in the Florida Jazz/Funk scene, Adam began his foray into Reggae music. While Reggae was unfamiliar, he did not shy away from the challenge of teaching himself a brand new style and cadence. Currently, Adam plays in nationally touring Reggae Pop outfit, Artikal Sound System, appearing at legendary venues like The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville and Red Rocks Amphitheater in Denver. You can find Adam’s most recent work on their 2022 Debut LP “Welcome to Florida”.
