Although Adam Karch hails from Montreal, his music embodies the spirit of Americana, like a picturesque stroll across the Great Plains. He plays a hybrid acoustic blues that consists of precise fingerpicking reminiscent of musicians such as RL Burnside, Mississippi John Hurt and Kelly Joe Phelps, as well as an innovative percussion technique that is thoroughly modern, yet somehow primitive and rooted in tradition. His style encapsulates the sound of a one-man band where the offbeat is always present, his palm producing the sound of a snare drum on the strings. Karch also incorporates a Porchboard for the bass drum rhythm, while the bass notes he plays with his thumb serve as the basis for melodies strummed with his index and middle fingers, creating a constant musical flow.
