Many singer-songwriters specializing in romantic songs risk easily falling into a cloying terrain, where cheesy lyrics abound and simplistic musical ideas are repeated.

“Although his compositions are very accessible, with sticky and simple melodies (what is known as easy listening), they carry a special charm that saves them from becoming annoying songs,” writes Pardo.

Adams and his band took the stage at 8:00 pm.
