David Ryan Adams is an alt-country/rock singer-songwriter from Jacksonville, North Carolina. Adams dropped out of high school at 16 to work in a shoe shop and make music. He formed a band named Whiskeytown in 1994; they disbanded in 1999. Adams went on to put out his first solo record, “Heartbreaker”, in 2000, which was reissued on SACD by audiophile label Mobile Fidelity in 2004.

Ryan Adams is a prolific artist, releasing eight solo albums between January 2000 and December 2005.
