Ryan Adams (født 5. november 1974) er en amerikansk sanger.
For ham var country-musik en del af hans musikalske opvækst. Som teenager udviklede han imidlertid smag for punk, især Black Flag, og startede som 14-årig sit eget punkband, The Patty Duke Syndrome, opkaldt efter tv-skuespillerinden Patty Duke, som Adams var forelsket i i sine teenage-år.
Efter et par år med punkmusik fik Adams trang til at udvide sit musikalske repertoire, og som 19-årig startede han gruppen Whiskeytown.
Whiskeytown spillede country med et ungdommeligt respektløst og dog hengivent forhold til genren. Gruppen blev et af de største navne indenfor den alternative country, inden de som følge af en kombination af kaotiske personligheder og internt pladeselskabsfnidder gik i opløsning med kun tre albums bag sig.
