Byron Adams (born 1955) is an American composer, conductor, and musicologist.
Adams received his Bachelor of Music degree from Jacksonville University, his Master of Music degree from the University of Southern California, and his Doctor of Musical Arts degree from Cornell University.

In 1977, he won the Grand Prize of the Delius Festival Composition Competition.
In 1984, he was awarded an ASCAP Raymond Hubbell Award for his compositions, and in 1985 he was the recipient of the inaugural Ralph Vaughan Williams Fellowship.
His music has been performed at the 26th Warsaw Autumn International Festival of Contemporary Music, Bargemusic, the Da Camera Society of Los Angeles, and the Conservatoire Américain in Fontainebleau, France (where he taught in the summer of 1992), as well as by such ensembles as Cantus, the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, and the Philharmonia Orchestra.
As a musicologist, Adams specializes in British and French music of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Equally appreciated for his work as a musicologist, Adams was the recipient of the American Musicological Society's Philip Brett Award in 2000 for his essay "The 'Dark Saying' of the Enigma: Homoeroticism and the Elgarian Paradox", published in Nineteenth-Century Music and the book chapter "'No Armpits, Please, We're British': Whitman and English Music, 1884–1936", in Walt Whitman and Modern Music: War, Desire and the Trials of Nationhood, both published that same year.
Adams holds the rank of Distinguished Professor at the University of California, Riverside, Department of Music, where he served as department chair from 2002 to 2005.
From 2006-2009 Adams served first as vice president (2006–07) and then as president of the North American British Music Studies Association, where he was later inducted as a lifetime honorary member in 2020.
In 2007, he was appointed scholar-in-residence and a member of the program committee for the Bard Music Festival, for which he was the editor of Edward Elgar and His World (Princeton, 2007), in addition to giving pre-concert lectures and contributing program notes.
Other notable organizations for which he has written programs notes include the Philadelphia Orchestra and the American Symphony Orchestra, among others.
Adams was a guest lecturer at Gresham College, London, in December 2007, while he was a visiting fellow for the Institute of Musical Research, School of Advanced Studies of the University of London.
