Amado's 20-year music career is characterized by a gradual shift from writing and recording music influenced by progressive rock to live performance in a funky style of jazz and blues. Born December 15, 1968, he spent his childhood in central New York State, where he was introduced to music through grade-school trombone lessons. As a teenager he was inspired by progressive rock, a style that tried to lift rock music to a level where it might be taken more seriously as an art form.
