Adams was born in Kingston, Ontario, and traveled throughout Europe and the Middle East as a child with his diplomat parents, until they settled back in Canada in 1973. Adams started his musical career by dropping out of school at age 15.
Musical career
At the age of seventeen, Adams sent a few demo recordings to A & M Records and was signed to them by age 18 for one dollar. He has written and released fourteen albums since then.
Some of the first demos written in 1978 have surfaced over the years; most notably is "I'm Ready" (recorded for both the Cuts Like a Knife LP and later on the MTV Unplugged album) and "Remember", which went on his first album. Both songs were covered by other artists before his first album was even released.
This time was also the start of a long songwriting partnership between Adams and co-writer Jim Vallance, which led to the first solo album, Bryan Adams, released in 1980. His second album, You Want It You Got It (1981), contained the FM radio hit "Lonely Nights", but it wasn't until his third album, Cuts Like a Knife, that he broke through with four hits in 1983, most notably with the title track. He quickly followed up that album with Reckless at the end of 1984, which produced six Top 40 songs and has since been certified five times platinum in the US. Next came Into the Fire in 1987, which was also certified platinum. This was the last album completely written by Adams and Vallance, but many of the fragments of their other songs ended up on the forthcoming block buster Waking up the Neighbours .
Live!Live!Live! is the complete recording of the 3 July 1988 concert in Werchter, Belgium, which was broadcast by the CBC in Canada and on MTV around the world. One of his most successful albums is 1991's Waking up the Neighbours (see 1991 in music), which was produced by Robert John "Mutt" Lange and Adams, and featured the single "Everything I Do (I Do It for You)". This album and the song went to number one everywhere in the world in 1991 and 1992, with the song spending a record-breaking sixteen weeks at number one on the charts in the United Kingdom. The next album was the hits collection So Far So Good lead by the single "Please Forgive Me", a slow rock ballad.
The next four years saw Adams releasing an album every year for four years, with 18 til I Die summer 1996, Bryan Adams MTV Unplugged winter 1997, On a Day Like Today autumn 1998, and The Best of Me worldwide in 1999 and in the U.S. in early 2002. In May 2002 he released the Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron DreamWorks soundtrack, which went gold in the U.S.
Room Service was released on 20 September 2004, in Canada and in Europe; "Open Road" was its first single. The album was released in the U.S. on 10 May 2005, on Mercury Nashville. Anthology is a two disc set, released in 2005 as a retrospective collection of hits and some more obscure tracks from the 25 years of recording.
As a photographer
Adams has had his photographs published in Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar, Jane and Interview, among others. His other photographic efforts are publishing 'Zoo Magazine', the fashion/art magazine based in Berlin, Germany. On 1 June 2005, he published his first book of photos in the United States with Calvin Klein called American Women; proceeds from this book go to breast cancer research for programs at the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. He released a similar book of photos called Made in Canada in December 1999. Both were a tribute to his friend Donna, who died of breast cancer.
In 2004 Adams was invited, along with other photographers from the Commonwealth, to photograph Queen Elizabeth II during her Golden Jubilee; one of his photographs was used as a Canadian postage stamp in 2004 and again in 2005 (see Queen Elizabeth II definitive stamp (Canada)).
On the 15 March 2006, Adams was presented with the gold award for his photo editorial on actor Mickey Rourke at the German Lead Awards in Hamburg, Germany.
