Rough & Ready
by ADAM JOHN FRASER & THE VIPER MAD
Wasted Years Records is proud to present the latest EP from Adam John Fraser & The Viper Mad, Rough & Ready.
Adam and The Viper Mad met up at Yellow Arch Studios in Sheffield where the spark was instantaneous. Songs he had waiting in his songbook finally became finished works and new inspiration flowed like strong northern ale. The Viper Mad are the missing piece that Adam had been searching these many years for. Recorded at Fox Den Studios in Sheffield by Will Severs the tracks rattle and hum like a well oiled machine.
Biography

Adam hails from the snowy northern outpost of Ottawa and learned music by stealing his brother's guitar and watching YouTube videos.
A tenure in London, UK broadened his range by meeting up with the guys at Wasted Years Records who spotted his talents while cleaning the loos at Benito's Hat (still the best burrito you will find). Sheffield was the anvil upon which his sound was hammered out.
