Adam Michael Neely (born 1988) is a New York City-based YouTuber, bassist, and composer. His YouTube channel contains a mix of musical history, theory, and popular culture video essays. He also creates "Gig Vlogs", which give insight into the life of a professional musician.

Career

He graduated from Berklee College of Music's undergraduate program in 2009. He was awarded the Herb Alpert ASCAP Young Jazz Composer award in 2012 and 2015 as well as the Jerome Fund commission prize in 2014, for his work "Exigence".

He has made appearances on NPR, TEDx, Vox, SiriusXM, SXSW, Ableton Loop, MAGFest, Bass Player Magazine, Electronic Musician Magazine and Ultimate Guitar. He has since worked as a bass player and educator in New York City with artists like Shubh Saran, Zac Zinger, the NYChillharmonic, The 8-Bit Big Band, J-Music Ensemble, and many others. Adam Neely frequently plays gigs with jazz/indie rock brass band Aberdeen.

He appeared on the BIMM podcast EP.8 to discuss his beginnings in music and approach to creating content. He discussed bass and the role of social media with YouTube bass educator Scott Devine in this podcast. He has also been interviewed by Music U.

Neely is a founding member of the electrojazz and EDM band Sungazer. He regularly performs with rock band Bright and Loud, indie-soul group Jae Soto, his large ensemble Mass Extinction Event, and a number of up and coming singer-songwriters on the New York scene.

In December 2019, Neely earned a spot in the New Yorker's annual Christmas Poem.

In 2020, Neely defended Katy Perry's use of an ostinato in the song Dark Horse after she was sued by the rapper Flame. To Neely's complete surprise, his video got claimed and monetized by Warner Chappell Music who claimed that the part where he played the ostinato for Flame's "Joyful Noise" was infringing on the copyright of Dark Horse.
