Adrian Xavier
Adrian Xavier "Seattle's Adrian Xavier blended sax and fiddle, reggae and soul, in a highly appealing musical brew."

"Energetic and honey-voiced, his long dreadlocks swinging in the breeze, Xavier sang feel-good songs on the Seattle Center lawn, about how we should take care of the planet and be good to each other.

His grooves were fetchingly danceable. He and his band kept surprising with eclectic riffs, off-center rhythms and fresh instrumental combinations."

Misha Berson - The Seattle Times

"Seattle's ADRIAN XAVIER doesen't screw around with reggae. He's not gimmicky, and he's not trying to capitalize on the memory of an era that has been already been thoroughly exploited. Xavier is reggae musician in the grandest traditions - exploring themes of pacifism, wonderlust, and the glory of religious experience and natural wonder. Infact, it'd be inaccurate to limit him to just reggae, as he incorprates elements of soul, dub, hip-hop, and rock 'n' roll into the show. Xavier's brimming over with authenticity and, perhaps more important, danceability."

- JEFF ECHERT THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST INLANDER

Although listeners may immediately identify Adrian Xavier's songwriting as situated in the Reggae genre from the sound and potent messages, a careful listen can sail them through World fusions, elements of Folk, warm isles of smooth Soul, Dub, Jazz, even Rock and Hip-Hop, revealing an artist who is an intrepid traveler in the musical as well as geographic sense. Xavier has performed at clubs, private events and festivals around the world, billed with a long list of great artists from multiple kinds of music.
