Terry Adams, born on August 14, 1948, in Louisville, Kentucky, is an American musician and composer known for his founding role in the band NRBQ. Formed in 1965, the band has been a significant part of his musical career. Adams met fellow band member Steve Ferguson in Louisville, who also became a charter member of NRBQ. His younger brother, Donn Adams, has contributed to the band in various support roles, including coining the band’s name, playing trombone as part of the 'Whole Wheat Horn' section, and writing liner notes.
