Music history
His earliest musical endeavor was a local Christian band, while this was with his brother, Asher, and friends, Robert McMinn and William Smith calling themselves, By Grace. The band only released an extended play, calling it, The EP, on August 18, 2009. Where nothing materialized from this entity, he started his solo career pursuit, while now his brother is studying and performing dentistry at the University of Florida. Adamec commenced his solo musical career in 2011 by releasing a holiday single, titled, "Christmas on the Beachside", with Lindsey Ciresi. He released one independent single, "We We're After", in 2012, but it failed to chart. His first single with Reunion Records, "My Only Answer", was released in 2014, where this was his breakthrough song on the Billboard magazine charts. The song peaked at No. 40 on the Christian Airplay chart, in 2015. He released, All the Brighter, on November 3, 2015, independently, a year after it was first scheduled to be released by Reunion Records. He is currently in a musical duo, with his wife, calling themselves, Austin & Lindsey Adamec.
