It was upon hearing B.B. King's "The Thrill Is Gone" at the age of twelve that Adam Goodley first heard passion and soul the likes of which he had never heard before. That experience inspired him to want to express himself through music and the keyboard became his instrument of choice. After graduating as an honor student and tennis star from the Buckley School, (he spent a semester at the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy and while there was chosen as a member of the US National High School Championship team,) Adam attended the Grove school of music where he developed his skills for singing and songwriting. That laid the foundation for what was to come. Adam changed his professional name to Exler, formed the band, Everblue, and on a limited budget, recorded his first of three CDs. The “Everblue” CD was a chance to showcase his original material as well as his unique lead vocals and keyboards. It led to gigs in many well-known venues in Los Angeles including the Viper Room, the Coconut Teaszer, and the House of Blues. He went on to record his next two CDs, “The Writings on the Wall” and the most recent, “You,” which was produced and arranged by Mark J. Vincent at his Multi Media Music studio. “You” features a cast of stellar musicians which include Adam on lead vocals and keys, Mark on guitar and synth, Fernando Jaramillo on drums, David Hughes on bass, and Felice Hernandez on backup vocals. Adam is a prolific singer/songwriter who has compiled an impressive body of work. His songs are full of beautiful melodies, harmonies, rhythm, passion, and hope in a genre described as a soulful, universal rock/pop sound.
