Barnes fell in love with reggae music the first time he heard it, recounting: “I was captured by the drum and bass vibes.” He really began embracing the genre in the summer of 1984, that's when he started collecting records and tapes with songs by some of his favorite artists: Gregory Issacs, Dennis Brown, Super Cat, Steel Pulse, Sanchez and many more. However, when asked who influenced his sound and style the most, he said Steel Pulse and Sanchez.

Adam 'Teacha' Barnes, a teacher by profession, is always ready to do a gig once he steps out of the classroom. Now having signed to My MM Productions, he is fully focused on showing off his writing, singing and performing skills to the world.
