Stray bit of information-
Queen, especially Brian May, has played a role in helping a band fronted by one of Adam's friends gain some success.
The Swedish-born Colt and African-American vocalist Ty Taylor came together to form VT in 2010, adding veteran bassist Rick Barrio Dill and drummer Richard Danielson. The band began playing covers and originals in the old, gritty Rhythm & Blues style at Santa Monica's famous blues club Harvelle's. The group's weekly shows quickly sold out and soon the boys found themselves signed by the legendary manager Doc McGhee, who had managed Bon Jovi, Motley Crue and KISS.
The band then went to the U.K., employing an intriguing strategy. Savvy to the phenomenon that American roots music is intensely popular in Europe, the group built their brand on the road around the U.K. before returning to the U.S. Taylor has played in a Broadway production of "We Will Rock You," a musical based on the songs of Queen, which led to a relationship with Queen's Brian May. When May decided to do a European tour, he invited VT along.
