Musician Bio

At the impressionable age of 11, exposure to Metallica's "Ride The Lightning" led Adam De Rosa to instantly drop his piano lessons and beg his parents to buy him a guitar. Under the tutelage of shred virtuoso Terry Syrek and nylon string master Greg Baker, Adam spent his formative years 'woodsheding' in his bedroom after school... only leaving to eat, attend band practices and visit the comic book store. Adam decided to further his education at NYU and graduated with a Bachelor of Music.

Adam currently resides in the Lower East Side of Manhattan dividing his time between teaching and performing with various musical projects, most notably industrial-psychedelic-rock experimenters ArpLine. His resume includes sharing the stage with noteworthy acts such as Iggy & The Stooges, Albert Hammond Jr. and Peaches as well as performing at the annual Lolapalooza, SXSW and CMJ festivals.
