Born in Seattle, he grew up surrounded by the music played by his father, a radio DJ,
in the 80's. Adrian's musical background gave rise to an environment which
allowed him to create songs that appeal to a broad cultural range of people.

At this point in his musical career, Adrian has been a performing artist for
more than 20 years and has shared the stage with many well known musicians. While a member of the "Pure Water
Band", they opened for
"The Wailers (of Bob Marley fame) and also for the famous Jamaican ska
and reggae musician Jimmy Cliff.
Adrian formed the "Adrian Xavier Band" in 2000, and has been performing in and around Seattle and various cities in the state of Washington. Additionally, he and his band have performed in China, Bali, Japan, Hawaii, Canada, Jamaica, France and other countries while on tour.
