Common Hours

Common Hours, a moniker for solo artist adam black, is a Portland-based indie-pop act with deep singer-songwriter roots. Influenced by the storytelling prowess of Jackson Browne, Yusuf / Cat Stevens, and Elvis Costello, Common Hours weaves compelling narratives through their music. Drawing inspiration from contemporary artists like Bon Iver, The Japanese House, and Phoebe Bridgers. "Close your eyes and drift away with Things Of That Nature, from Common Hours' (aka Portland’s own adam black ) debut LP, 'Little Love'. This ethereal soundscape is everything you want in an indie pop anthem – tender vocals that caress your ears, acoustic guitar and piano weaving a warm tapestry, and subtle electronic flourishes that add a touch of modern mystique. Black’s songwriting is the star here. Deep, yet relatable lyrics glisten, and the tender embrace of the acoustic guitar and piano is a masterclass in creating a lush sonic landscape." - Neon Music debut album, 'Little Love', is out now
