Rolling Stone named 10 new acts to know in 2015 including Adam Hood on the list. See, we already knew this, which is why we love playing Adam's music, not to mention, when he comes to town, we never miss a show. Adam has incredible music, but he also knows how to put on a great concert.

So happy that he got this awesome shout out by the Rolling Stone:

Why You Should Pay Attention: The Opelika, Alabama, native has had his diary-like songs recorded by radio stars (Little Big Town, Frankie Ballard) and Texas troubadours (Stoney LaRue, Josh Abbot Band) alike, underscoring the universal quality of Hood's hooks. Both his latest album Welcome to the Big World, inspired by his teenage daughter, and 2011's The Shape of Things, are full of rock riffs and acoustic ruminations — as well as an unflinching honesty that'll have you taking stock of your own existence."

Check out our interview with Adam Hood last year when he was in town.
