Jodorowsky's first guitar lessons were given to him by The Beatles guitarist George Harrison. In this occasion, Harrison told him that "he was far". Adán did not know if "he was far" in an enlightened way or "far" from being a good guitarist. When he was sixteen he joined the punk band The Hellboys.

On October 30, 2006, he released his first solo album, Étoile Éternelle, as "Adanowsky", and his first single, "L'idole" (meaning "the idol") which was also released in Spanish as "El Ídolo"; the song is about a waiter who wants all the attention and dreams of becoming famous and an idol.
In 2007 he featured as an actor in the Julie Delpy's movie 2 Days In Paris. In 2008, he released his second album, El Ídolo and had a big success in many countries.
In 2011 he released his third solo album Amador and won the UFI award for "Best International Artist Of The Year" and "Best Live Show".
