Adam Doleac
When Adam Doleac was two years old, growing up in Hattiesburg, Miss., his father Donnie taught him to play that drumbeat.
By the time he was two, Adam had already displayed some musical talent.
Singing came much later, unless you count the video of four-year-old Adam, sporting a leather jacket and sunglasses, performing Ray Charles’ “I Got A Woman.”
Even though he demonstrated musical talent, as a youngster, Adam also excelled in sports. There was soccer, t-ball, and even ice hockey. Read Full BioWhen Adam Doleac was two years old, growing up in Hattiesburg, Miss., his father Donnie taught him to play that drumbeat.

Singing came much later, unless you count the video of four-year-old Adam, sporting a leather jacket and sunglasses, performing Ray Charles’ “I Got A Woman.”
Even though he demonstrated musical talent, as a youngster, Adam also excelled in sports. There was soccer, t-ball, and even ice hockey. The Mississippi Sea Wolves played in a rink an hour south of Hattiesburg, and his parents drove him there so he could participate in a league.
Adam also played baseball until he was 13, when he gave it up for golf. “I was away every weekend playing tournaments.” Halfway through his Junior year in high school, he was offered a full golf scholarship to Delta State University. With offers for golf and basketball already on the table, after being talked into playing baseball his Senior year by his friends, the University of Southern Mississippi made its own offer of a baseball scholarship after just one year of playing. Adam accepted and went on to win three rings in four years as the Southern Miss. Conference USA Champ. He also played in the College World Series in 2009.
That decision changed the course of his life. “It’s unbelievable how much one decision can impact where life takes you,” he says. His college roommates were on the baseball team with him – and they were all guitar players. “That’s where I learned my first chords. On Dec. 29, 2010, I wrote my first song while on vacation in the Dominican Republic.” It was the first time out of the country for the Mississippi native who had only experienced Hattiesburg and family vacations in Florida. “I remember sitting on a hotel balcony on the third floor, watching people of all different ethnicities and walks of life. I’d never seen any of that before, and that gave me the idea for my first song, ‘Travel On.’ I put it on YouTube and the next thing I knew, it had 450,000 views.”
Adam wrote four more songs and released an EP while he was still playing baseball. Over one thousand people showed up for a CD release party in his hometown. Then Adam hit the road, and for the first time, sang live in front of people. Success on the road led to more songwriting and a full-length album. “I was driving back and forth to Nashville to write songs so I decided to move there to write with other people.” Adam arrived in Music City on Oct. 15, 2012. “It’s a happy, driven city,” he says. “Everybody is chasing after something they love to do.”
Things moved relatively quickly for Adam in Nashville. In a little over a year, he had already experienced having his first song played on the radio. His mother called to let him know she heard “I Put It On Ya” on SiriusXM’s The Highway, and Adam quickly tuned in so he could hear it himself. “Hugh Freeze, the head football coach at Ole Miss, loves the song and blares it over the stadium speakers when the team is practicing.”
He then met Jake LaGrone, who became his manager, and in 2015, signed a publishing deal with Sony/ATV. He’s played nearly 400 shows the last two years, but has scaled back live performances lately to allow more time for writing songs. He’s penned upwards of 200 songs since the day “Travel On” was written on the balcony in the Dominican Republic, and in the last few months, several country superstars have put holds on some of his compositions, including Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Darius Rucker, Justin Moore and David Nail.
What’s next for the country artist whose diverse influences range from John Mayer to the Eagles and Chris Stapleton? He’s about to record a new EP and has been taking meetings with various labels in Nashville. His dream is to play the big stadiums and arenas and every day brings him one step closer to fulfilling that dream. Look for his name on the charts soon – both as a songwriter and as an artist, one of country’s next superstars.

Adam Doleac Lyrics
Must've been living under a rock
Must've not left the house for a couple of years
All the telephones, TVs, radios off
Put a blindfold on, cotton in my ears
'Cause you got this instantly recognizable quality about you babe
Yeah I gotta say
Girl you look famous
Like South Beach or Vegas
All up in the paper, in the supermarket aisle
That dress on you I swear
I know you from somewhere
Gotta know what your name is
'Cause God you look famous when you smile
Ooh when you smile
Some show, some song, billboard or commercial
Do you do the weather, do you read the news?
Girl you got my head spinning around in circles
And by the way I'm looking at you
And everybody else is too, I'm thinking
Girl you look famous
Like South Beach or Vegas
All up in the paper, in the supermarket aisle
That dress on you I swear
I know you from somewhere
Gotta know what your name is
'Cause God you look famous when you smile
Famous when you smile
You got your elbows on the bar
Shinin' in the blue neon
Yeah something I just can't place or put my finger on
'Cause you got this instantly recognizable quality about you babe
Yeah you might not be but
Ooh girl you look famous
Like South Beach or Vegas
All up in the paper, in the supermarket aisle
That dress you got on, got me looking for some paparazzi
Gotta know what your name is
Girl you look famous when you smile
Famous when you smile
Girl you look famous
You look so famous when you smile

ADAM DOLEAC (2019) – FAMOUS (Traducción)
Must've been living under a rock
Debo de haber estado viviendo bajo una roca
Must've not left the house for a couple of years
No debo de haber abandonado la casa durante un par de años
All the telephones, TVs, radios off
Todos los teléfonos, teles, radios apagados
Put a blindfold on, cotton in my ears
Llevar una venda en los ojos, algodón en los oídos
Cause you got this instantly recognizable quality about you babe
Porque tienes esta cualidad instantáneamente reconocible en ti cariño
Yeah I gotta say
Sí tengo que decir que
Girl you look famous
Nena pareces famosa
Like South Beach or Vegas
Como South Beach o Las Vegas
All up in the paper, in the supermarket aisle
En el periódico, en el pasillo del supermercado
That dress on you I swear
Ese vestido que llevas juro que
I know you from somewhere
Te conozco de algún lado
Gotta know what your name is
Tengo que saber cómo te llamas
Cause God you look famous when you smile
Porque Dios pareces famosa cuando sonríes
Ooh when you smile
Uuh cuando sonríes
Some show, some song, billboard or commercial
Algún espectáculo, alguna canción, la billboard o un anuncio
Do you do the weather, do you read the news?
¿Das el pronóstico del tiempo, presentas las noticias?
Girl you got my head spinning around in circles
Nena tienes a mi cabeza dando vueltas sobre sí misma
And by the way I'm looking at you
Y por cierto te estoy mirando
And everybody else is too I'm thinking
Y todos los demás también, estoy pensando que
Girl you look famous
Nena pareces famosa
Like South Beach or Vegas
Como South Beach o Las Vegas
All up in the paper, in the supermarket aisle
En el periódico, en el pasillo del supermercado
That dress on you I swear
Ese vestido que llevas juro que
I know you from somewhere
Te conozco de algún lado
Gotta know what your name is
Tengo que saber cómo te llamas
Cause God you look famous when you smile
Porque Dios pareces famosa cuando sonríes
Famous when you smile
Famosa cuando sonríes
You got your elbows on the bar
Tienes los codos sobre la barra
Shinin' in the blue neon
Brillando bajo el neón azul
Yeah something I just can't place or put my finger on
Sí algo que no acabo de identificar o dar con el quid
Cause you got this instantly recognizable quality about you babe
Porque tienes esta cualidad instantáneamente reconocible en ti cariño
Yeah you might not be but
Sí puede que no lo seas pero
Ooh girl you look famous
Uuh nena pareces famosa
Like South Beach or Vegas
Como South Beach o Las Vegas
All up in the paper, in the supermarket aisle
En el periódico, en el pasillo del supermercado
That dress you got on got me looking for some paparazzi
Ese vestido que llevas puesto hace que esté buscando algún paparazzi
Gotta know what your name is
Tengo que saber tu nombre
Girl you look famous when you smile
Nena pareces famosa cuando sonríes
Famous when you smile
Famosa cuando sonríes
Girl you look famous
Nena pareces famosa
You look so famous when you smile
Pareces tan famosa cuando sonríes
