🎶 Richmond Adams 🎶
The British musician at the heart of Musical Awakening
"Some voices feel like you've heard them before. Even when you haven't."
— Musical Awakening
Richmond Adams is a rising British singer-songwriter whose music feels like it was made specifically for you — haunting, personal, and impossible to walk away from.
He is also the love interest at the center of Musical Awakening, the debut novel by Megan Elvrum.
When concert photographer and music blogger June Snow first hears Richmond perform, she tells herself it's just another show. It isn't. What follows is years of near-misses, longing, creativity, and a music scene that keeps pulling them back together — a slow burn love story told across concerts, coffee shops, Oxford, London, Los Angeles, San Diego, and life on tour, spanning 2013 to 2017.
🎵 About Richmond
Richmond Adams is from Oxford, England — a city of cobblestone streets, punting on the river, and the kind of rainy afternoons that feel designed for falling in love slowly.
He plays piano. He writes his own songs. His music feels like the kind that finds you at exactly the right moment and changes the direction of your life.
He is charismatic without trying to be. Attentive in a way that catches June — and the reader — off guard. He notices things. He remembers things. He already knows her coffee order.
He calls her My June.
📖 Richmond Adams in Musical Awakening
Richmond appears throughout all sixteen chapters of Musical Awakening, his presence felt even in the moments he's absent. His story — and his relationship with June — unfolds across years and cities, told through June's blog posts, tweets, texts, and the intimate prose of a woman trying to make sense of something she didn't plan for.
His shows take him from Oxford to London, Los Angeles to San Diego, festivals to intimate venues — and June is there for more of it than either of them expected.
💬 Richmond Adams Quotes
"Good morning, My June, black coffee, right?" He already knows the way to my heart.
"Worth the wait," I whisper back.
"But you are not like everyone else."
"My June…I am…so glad we made it here."
🎶 The Music Behind Richmond Adams
Richmond Adams was inspired by the world of British indie music that shaped the most formative years of Megan Elvrum's life as a music blogger and concert photographer. His sound lives somewhere between the intimate piano of A Silent Film and the emotional weight of a song that finds you at exactly the right moment.
The hashtag #ListenForYourself — which runs through every chapter of Musical Awakening — was born from a real song by The Filthy Souls that captured everything Richmond's music is meant to feel like.
