A Whitley Bay-based marine insurance claims executive who found his musical mojo during lockdown is gearing up to release his latest single.
Adam Curran – better known as the independent electronic music producer Arcade Skies – has received plaudits via BBC Introducing as well as regional radio stations and arts and culture magazines, since he began channeling his creative talents into making his own music during the first Covid lockdown in 2020. Since then he’s released two critically acclaimed EPs and a number of singles, with his latest offering, Sugar Sugar, set to hit the airwaves on May 2.
Adam, 44, specialises in 80s derived synth pop electronica under the guise of his alter ego, Arcade Skies. The name was inspired by both Whitley Bay’s amusement arcades and the spectacular sunrises and sunsets he witnessed on lockdown walks.
