Australian singer-songwriter Adam Brice made a long-held dream come true with the release of his debut album, Never Is Too Late. This 12-track project is the culmination of more than three decades of musical aspirations, persistence, and artistic growth. Brice‘s journey from his teenage days recording guitar riffs on cassette tapes to releasing a polished, multifaceted album is nothing short of inspirational. With an eclectic blend of rock, country, and acoustic elements, Never Is Too Late is a testament to his enduring passion for music and storytelling.
Brice shares his heartfelt reflections on finally achieving his dream, saying, “As life moves on, there are hopes you let go of—even without realizing it. For me, making an album was one of them. From my teenage years spent hitting play, stop, and rewind on my cassette recorder, dreaming of making music others would enjoy, to finally bringing this album to life, it’s been a long road. But this record proves that some dreams are worth revisiting. And I’m proud to say—this one was worth the wait.”
The album kicks off with the title track Never Is Too Late, a powerful rock anthem that embodies the album’s overarching theme of resilience and hope. With its driving guitar riffs and soaring chorus, it’s a bold opening statement that sets the tone for the entire record. The momentum continues with One More Day, where Brice‘s confident vocals and energetic instrumentation deliver an irresistible earworm.
As listeners dive deeper into the album, they are treated to diverse sonic landscapes. Tracks like Back to You and A Life She Left Behind venture into country-rock territory, offering vivid storytelling layered with twangy guitar melodies. Brice’s ability to capture raw emotions through compelling narratives is evident here, making these tracks standout moments that resonate deeply.
On the more introspective side, Everything and She Said Yes strip things back to acoustic simplicity, allowing Brice’s heartfelt vocals to shine. The intimate production and honest lyrics create a poignant atmosphere, showcasing the singer’s versatility and ability to connect with listeners on a deeply personal level. These quieter moments offer a beautiful contrast to the album’s more upbeat tracks.
The production of Never Is Too Late is impeccable, thanks in large part to the creative vision of Peter “Reggie” Bowman, who served as the album’s producer and mixing engineer. Bowman also lent his talents to rhythm guitar, bass, and keys, helping shape the album’s rich and cohesive sound. Collaborations with seasoned musicians like Pete Drummond and Nate Hill further elevate the record, adding layers of depth and polish to Brice’s heartfelt compositions.
While each track on Never Is Too Late stands on its own, there’s a cohesive thread that runs throughout the album: an unwavering belief in second chances and the idea that it’s never too late to pursue your dreams. Brice’s songwriting is both introspective and relatable, making it easy for listeners to find pieces of their own stories within his music.
As the album winds down with tracks like Love Will Find a Way and Better Together, Brice leaves listeners with a sense of hope and fulfillment. The closing moments feel like the culmination of not just an album, but a journey that Brice has long envisioned.
