The Acoustic Adele Medley of TheUnspoken

When Adele shook the Music Industry in 2011, our acoustic band, TheUnspoken has made our own rendition of her songs. She has plenty of trademark songs which are all original and unique that’s why among these, we’ve picked out five of our favorite songs to be part of our medley: Someone Like You, Chasing Pavements, Don’t You Remember, Make You Feel My Love, and Rolling In The Deep (that served as our intro and finale song at the same time).

If you closely listen to Adele’s recorded album, you can imagine a big full band with lots of musical instruments playing at the background, or sometimes even orchestra. Hence this became a challenge to our band since we’re performing acoustically wherein there was neither keyboard nor electric guitar, and instead only two acoustic guitars and the vocalists. Take note, I haven’t played any percussion instruments yet during that time unlike today wherein I played beatbox (Cajun), Chime, and Maracas, and in the future, I might be playing some upgraded instruments like Bongo or electronic drum set at guitar center.

Well, our band’s acoustic version of Adele Medley was applauded by the audience during that time, and there were even others saying that they have had LSS (last song syndrome) because of it.

Since then, we include our very own rendition of Adele Medley to the other events that we attend to. You can watch the past performances of the band by clicking the links below:
