ADAM TULLY
Guitarist - Composer - Arranger
Hi! It's always hard to talk about yourself but here goes…
I started playing the guitar at age 14. After trying different instruments I finally fell in love. While in Argentina, where I went to study abroad in college, I discovered tango.
And then for about 20 years I went back and forth between New York and Buenos Aires, first learning about tango, then playing in other people’s groups, and finally deciding that I wanted to contribute something original. So I started writing my own music and leading my own group.
I’ve been really lucky to learn from some of the masters of previous generations, people like Anibal Arias, Daniel Binelli, and Tito Castro. Ultimately I chose to move to Buenos Aires because of the incredible boom that tango is experiencing here. I wanted to be a part of it, and contribute my musical point of view, but I also wanted to keep learning. In Buenos Aires I’m connected with the culture that created this music, and with the best tango musicians and audiences in the world.
It’s nice to get out to other places too, so I hope to see you and bring my music to your part of the world sometime soon.
