Adam Seth Gardner (born May 31, 1973 in Somerville, Massachusetts)[1] is a guitarist and vocalist of the band Guster[2] and a member of the Tufts University Beelzebubs. Adam does a weekly radio show in Portland, Maine where he discusses everything from music to environmental issues.
He grew up in Morristown, New Jersey, and played for a band called Royal Flush while a student at the Pingry School, from which he graduated in 1991.[3] He also attended Harding Township School in New Vernon, New Jersey. Gardner, working with Dave Schneider, recently created a side-project called The LeeVees. Its album, Hanukkah Rocks, consists of humorous original songs about the Jewish holiday.
