Imperial Bass
Adam Phillips has played bass since he was nine; that's over 25 years. In the 80's he played in one of Hollywood's most controversial bands, The Insultors. Once black-balled from the strip for telling the "Godfather of the Strip" what he could do with his pay-to play idea, they eventually made it back to hold some of the highest-attended shows in Whisky-A-Go-Go history.
In the mid 90's, Adam switched gears to do a lot of studio work in Hollywood, CA, working for many rock, rap and jazz acts. After years of odds and ends gigs, he finally made it to Oregon, where he help[ed form Firkinah Souls, "a high energy jam funk kinda thing" that turned many industry heads.
Adam now fills the bottom end with the project Autumn & Empire, a Power Pop band in Bend, Oregon. The band is fronted by Autumn, a singer/songwriter often compared quite favorably to Sarah McLachlan and Fiona Apple. The band's sound is intriguing combination of Rock, Rap, Funk, Metal, Celtic and a touch of Jazz. The band is currently in talks with several major labels and hopes to offer their first major release soon.
To get his driving sound, Adam uses our WT800, powering a variety of Eden cabinets, including a D210XLT, a D215XLT and a pair of D410XLTs. He also recently got a DC210XLT Metro for rehearsals and intimate gigs. "I tried all the bass amps I could get my hands over the years and Eden always did the trick." he says. "I've dropped it, kicked it and even let my friends use it and it always performs to my expectations. I have found my amp company and I'm stickin' with them!" |
