About Adin Boyer

From his classical piano, choir, opera, and music theory beginnings to his massive solo and full-band indie rock performances, Adin Boyer has lived a life fully devoted to music, and has discovered himself entirely through music. His sound draws influences from anthemic arena alternative rock outfits such as Coldplay, Keane, and The Fray, the glorious ambiences of groups like Hammock and M83, and piano-driven virtuosity evoking Elton John and Tori Amos.

Adin dove headfirst into the indie rock world following a milestone first-ever full-band performance at his CalArts grad recital in late 2021, with a series of songs he wrote and orchestrated just before and at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. The five-song collection ultimately culminated in his debut EP “Caseload”, which was recorded with his band of CalArts comrades and engineered, mixed, and mastered by Robert Adam Stevenson of A Silent Film at Revolver Recordings.

Following Adin’s debut EP release, Adin gained widespread international notoriety as a contestant on season 21 of American Idol, where he advanced to the top 55. Through Idol, and also through his collaborations with several notable figures and organizations in the disability community, Adin also directly solidified his stance as a fierce advocate for neurodiversity affirmation and anti-bullying.

Following Adin's most massive solo performance to date at Fenway Park, Adin released his sophomore EP, “Regroup”; which features many of Adin’s fellow disabled artist colleagues of various mediums on the cover. Following his massive full-band release-celebration shows in his hometown of Lake Forest and his first-ever full-band show in LA at The Mint, Adin set off on his largest-to-date solo tour across the country. Adin's third EP "Newer Needs" celebrates self-actualization and eager anticipation of new milestones ahead, as he continues to travel the country, make new friends, and live his dreams…
