Bryan Guy Adams, rock musician, songwriter, guitarist, was born on November 5, 1959 in Kingston.
At the age of 12, Brian played quite professionally on the guitar, and at 16, in spite of his parents, he stopped going to school, because she “interfered” with music, songwriting, and in general his musical career.
His first disco single, "Let Me Take You Dansing", did not achieve much success, but became a hit, especially in New York, hitting the charts. And the result of this first "breakthrough," as Brian himself notes, was the signing of Bruce Ellen and Brian's remaining manager.
He began his musical career in 1976 as a member of rock bands. His first solo album, Brian, was released in 1980. And already in 1985, Adams headed the 100 best compositions with the rock ballad Heaven, and it was the lyrical ballads that brought him recognized success and became the foundational style in his musical career.
In the first half of the 90s, Brian wrote a whole series of instrumental lyrical ballads for movies that were nominated for the Oscars: the composition “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You” – to the acclaimed one.
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves "All for Love" from The Three Musketeers and, of course, "Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman?" from Don Juan de Marco. In total, Brian Adams wrote compositions for more than 42 films.
The second half of the 90s diminished Adams' popularity, or, as they say, there was just a little creative stagnation.
Bryan Adams started the new century with a big tour around the world. Through concerts, meeting old people or meeting new people, Brian continues to seek inspiration to write new hits.
Lived in France, studied French, fluent in it. In recent years he has settled in Canada, Vancouver. “Sick” for the players of the club “Chelsea”, and it is to them – the players of the club – dedicated to his composition “We’re Gonna Win”.

Repeatedly came to Moscow, and not only participated, but also organized charity concerts, for which he was awarded the Order of Canada - the highest award of his country.
In addition to his music and career, Bryan spends a lot of time in the cancer movement. For example, in mid-1998, he and model Eva Evangelista organized a grand concert and all the money raised (more than $ 1 million) was given to build a center for the study of breast cancer at St. Carolina Hospital.
