with the album: "Helium in low voltage wiring"


Artist's Biography

Jack Adamant solo career began around 2012 when he started writing songs that were heavily influenced by american artists such as J Mascis, Lou Barlow, Evan Dando, Bob Mould, Mac McCaughan, Robert Pollard and others from the same music scene. Learning to play guitar at twelve years old he couldn’t wait to start writing music, learning to mix with an old tape recorder won in a street raffle. By experimenting with different genres of music and meticulously studying his favourite lyrics, he finally found his own style leaning towards alternative indie/rock.

After signing to AR Recordings in July 2017, the work began to release Jack Adamant’s first EP “Lunch at 12 since ’82“. The EP consists of five songs which tell the story of a couple navigating the obstacles and hardships of life together. His way of narrating highlights the fragility of a relationship; the difficulty in knowing when to push harder and fight for something, when to whisper words of support if the other is struggling but also to be brutally honest with each other when things aren’t working out.

Jack released his first full length record “Unkind” in 2019, a major departure from his earlier sound, written between Stockholm, Liverpool, Rome and God knows where else. Since 2020, the full band has leaned into a grittier indie punk direction, producing a fresh wave of songs alongside drummer Ged and bassist Vix. Recorded largely at home during lockdown, this period birthed “Obscure Places & Cupboards” (2022), an album that tackles modern dilemmas with commanding vocals and thrilling guitar work, paying homage to the raw energy of rock legends.

Following a string of new releases including “Pixels In The Dark”, “Stuck & Paralysed”, “Over Signs” and a personal take on The Cure’s “Friday I’m In Love”, Jack returns with his most dynamic project yet. His new album, “Helium in Low Voltage Wiring” explores the tension between contrasting emotions and sounds, offering a listening experience that is both introspective and dynamic. It’s a record built on contradiction, fragile yet forceful, reflective yet charged, further cementing his place as an artist unafraid to evolve.


About the Album

"Helium In Low Voltage Wiring" evokes a striking sense of contrast and complexity, blending the light, ethereal qualities of helium with the grounded, technical nature of low-voltage wiring. The title suggests a fusion of the delicate and the powerful, hinting at themes of balance, duality, and the interplay between the natural and the man-made. It conjures imagery that is both airy and weightless, yet firmly connected to the world of energy and technology.

The album as a whole explores contrasting emotions, sounds, and concepts, offering a listening experience that is both introspective and electrifying. Beneath the surface, it gestures toward deeper themes: the tension between fragility and strength, the organic and the artificial, or emotional vulnerability set against the backdrop of a modern, technological world.

It allowed me to know my own mind.”

Jack released his first full record “Unkind” in 2019, which was a massive change in sound from the old days, written between Stockholm, Liverpool, Rome and God knows where else. “I am so thankful to all the people who supported me and the musicians who shared their talent to make this happen”.
