The Adored were an American power pop, garage and punk band based in Los Angeles, California, United States.
The band was made up of Ryan George (vocals), Nathanael Keefer (drums), Drew Bayers (guitar) and Max Humphrey (bass).
Keefer later left Carry On and moved to Los Angeles, and George followed suit shortly after the release of their LP A Life Less Plagued.
The most obvious and frequently cited source of the band's name is The Stone Roses song "I Wanna Be Adored."
[6] The song "Not Having It" was featured in the two-part Grey's Anatomy episode "The Other Side of This Life", which doubled as a back door pilot for the spin-off series Private Practice.
