Thinkbendy is the studio recording project from Adam Bendy. From 2003-2013, Bendy toured and recorded with the New York jam quartet U-melt. After several years of culling and developing older material, Bendy wrote music and lyrics, arranged, and performed his new ideas for his 2017 thinkbendy debut release entitled, CHANGE, the first chapter in a multi-phase vision. Long time friends and collaborators, Robert Salzer on guitar and George Miller on drums (both from U-melt), and special guest musician Ann McInerney on flute contributed to the recording.

With CHANGE Bendy covered the groundwork necessary to address the next dimension of his work, Thinkbendy’s second installment, 'The Essence of Time', which he calls, “the medium of change itself.” More of the usual suspects are back in action: writing, composing, and arranging the album, Bendy wears his trademark many hats as he also plays bass, keys, and delivers vocals; his longtime friend Rob Salzer brilliantly handles guitar, project new comer Devon Leigh brings dynamic percussion, topped off with a gleefully unhinged trumpet feature from his own cousin, Dr. Thomas Manuel-- all propel Bendy and his lyrics toward vocal expression that leans deeply into each song’s emotion.

As 'The Essence of Time' nears completion, listeners can connect with Thinkbendy on major music streaming sites, across social media, and on internet radio.
