Adam Again was the name of a rock band, led by vocalist Gene Eugene, and backed by Riki Michele on vocals, Paul Valadez on bass, Jon Knox on drums, Greg Lawless on guitar, and Dan Michaels on saxophone.
Gene Eugene's mystical voice (often mistaken for REM's Michael Stipe) remained the least changing element in a band that seemed to have trouble feeling comfortable staying limited to one style. Melting soul, funk, rock and acoustic influences into their own inimitable style, they seemed to pay little attention to trends and never seemed to achieve commercial viability. The band quit touring and recording together in 2000 after Eugene passed away in his recording studio, the "fabulous" Green Room.
