Peter Bradley Adams writes music that relaxes me. He's one of those guys that I like to listen to in the late evenings, especially when he comes through Nashville on tour. I caught him last week when he played a reunion show with eastmountainsouth and lately I've been enjoying his new album, Traces. One of my favorite tracks from that album, "For You," was recently played on ABC Family's Make It or Break It -- a series that I'm not familiar with, but that clearly deserves some cool points. And I look forward to hearing "So Are You to Me" next month in the Robert DeNiro movie, Everybody's Fine. With his whispery vocals and subdued arrangements, he's already cultivated a strong following, considering that Traces debuted at No. 1 in the singer-songwriter category on iTunes. If you'd like new music for twilight time, here's a playlist from throughout his promising career to get you started.
