Jerry Adams, is a vigorous man who is full of life. His first priorities are his family and his music, and with eight children, Mr. Adams is definitely a strong believer in ‘old school’ style family values. Born and raised in the dirty south, Adams credits his parents, (who were both singers in their own rights), for his love of music. His mother, Ruby Guyton Adams, sang in numerous church choirs, and his father, Odell Adams, came from a musical family who were leaders in the gospel music movement across the south.

Adams often dreamed of one day becoming a singer and songwriter, and joining the ranks of musicians such as Otis Redding, Marvin Gay, Luther Vandross, and Elvis Presley. With his smooth, sultry, and soulful voice, Adams believes that his ‘crooning’ style is a blend of R&B, blues, and country; which he often refers to as “Brown-Eyed Country Soul”. Mr. Adams’ major musical influences range from The Temptations, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Marvin Gay, Otis Redding, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Luther Vandross, Percy Sledge, Wilson Pickett, Elvis Presley, Tom Jones, The Rogers Brothers, and numerous others, whose sounds and styles are as seasoned as Adams’ own creative style.
