about
Adam Holt hails from the delta of Mobile, Alabama, the ‘Port City’, which is noted as the backdoor of New Orleans.

However, even though he is steeped in acoustic/slide Delta blues, his most powerful playing comes from the electric guitar. Adam Holt defines the sound of Mobile, Alabama, which is a southern blend of blues, roots and soul. From the Mobile river and delta and the famed Dauphin St. music scene of downtown Mobile, to the cotton fields across the Baldwin County region and to the white sands of Gulf Shores, you can hear the influences of Adam Holt through his music.

Adam Holt & The Blues Congregation's show consists of a fired up, energetic, electric blues show, and also an acoustic blues set, where Adam takes the stage solo, with his acoustic, and plays a small set of Robert Johnson type, "early roots" music. Adam has shared the stage with several major artists, including the one and only Lynyrd Skynyrd, Drivin' n' Cryin', Waldoxy/Malaco recording artists, The Beat Daddy’s, Clarence ‘Gatemout
