RYAN ADAMS: 1989

iTUNES PRE-ORDER LIVE NOW WITH “BAD BLOOD” INSTANT GRAT
 
DIGITAL RELEASE MONDAY SEPTEMBER 21

1989 digital cover

“Can Ryan Adams’ Taylor Swift 1989 cover album just get here already?”—BILLBOARD

“Could be the album of the year.”—DETAILS

“Not only does Ryan Adams’s 1989 appear to actually exist, but judging by what’s been shared, it could be pretty wonderful.”—GRANTLAND

“Yes, please… Part of the fun of any cover is getting a glimpse into the person, not just the performer. Getting to see what they geek out over, just as we’re geeking out over them. That Adams is a mega-fan of Swift, who also got started as a teenager on the alt-country circuit, albeit in a slightly more wholesome manner, is no surprise but is still perfect.”—VANITY FAIR

“Ryan Adams’ cover of Taylor Swift’s 1989 is almost here… we were starting to fret… Adams posted… that he’ll have a final ‘mix and master’ of the cover album done this week, which means get ready for the most turned down Taylor Swift listening experience of your life. We might be OK, but we’re not fine at all.”—WIRED

The wait is over and the internet’s current favorite urban legend is now a reality: Ryan Adams’ full album cover of Taylor Swift’s 1989 is now available for digital pre-order at iTunes and will be released Monday, September 21 on PAX-AM/Blue Note.

iTunes pre-orders will immediately receive the instant grat track “Bad Blood,” which is also available at Spotify and can be purchased individually at all finer digital retailers. For details on 1989’s impending release on CD and vinyl, stay tuned to http://paxamrecords.com.

Produced by Adams, the first news of this reinterpretation of 1989 was revealed last month on the Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter’s Instagram (@misterryanadams) with the post “Taylor Swift1989 full album cover night 1. As played by the Smiths.” Several subsequent posts of song snippets revealed much more range than that—including a take on “Bad Blood” that VANITY FAIR called “a lovelyHeartbreaker-era style version” referencing Adams’ classic debut, a string quartet-enhanced version of “Blank Space,” what Adams promised to be the “guaranteed saddest version of ‘Welcome to New York’ ever – or your tears back,” and more.

Every bit of 1989 music Adams has let out has built excitement and anticipation—not least with Swift herself who tweeted in response to Adams’ informing her that he’d “just finished ‘Style’” August 6: “@TheRyanAdams Cool I’m not gonna be able to sleep tonight or ever again and I’m going to celebrate today every year as a holiday. I’M CALM”

RYAN ADAMS ANNOUNCES SPECIAL RE-RELEASE OF HEARTBREAKER

CD & VINYL FORMATS AVAILABLE MAY 26th
VIA PAX-AM (CAROLINE/UNIVERSAL)

SUPER DELUXE EDITION TO BE RELEASED IN 2015

image001
Hot on the heels of the recent release of Ryan Adams: Live at Carnegie Hall—which Rolling Stone has hailed as “stunning…a heartfelt love letter to his former hometown”— Ryan Adams is pleased to announce that his critically acclaimed 2000 solo debut Heartbreaker will see a special re-release in both CD and vinyl formats, out worldwide May 26th on Pax-Am (Caroline/Universal).

Though the album has been consistently available digitally through iTunes, this will be the first time in several years that physical formats will be brought back in print, and will be available for purchase at your local record store as well as online outlets.

Additionally, fans can expect an even bigger surprise coming later this year, as Heartbreaker will be getting a very special deluxe treatment. Stay tuned for more details at paxamrecords.com.

Last night at the Witching Hour, Ryan Adams and Elvira conspired to unveil the spooktastic video for “Gimme Something Good,” the already overwhelmingly acclaimed lead single from the self-produced Ryan Adams (out September 9 on PAX-AM/Blue Note). Those brave enough to view the Michael Reich-directed clip in the light of day can now do so at http://vevo.ly/d7LJsX.

“Gimme Something Good” will make its network TV debut tomorrow night on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, giving the audience in the studio and at home a taste of what’s been getting the media riled up like so:

“scorches with Stonesian bravado and a fist-pump-worthy chorus” – ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY The Must List

“If ‘Gimme Something Good’ – the lead single, is any indication, the album will contain more of the blues-tinged, post–college rock that earned him fans in the first place.” — ROLLING STONE

“This thing is a total knockout. Give it a listen.” — STEREOGUM

“a gritty guitar-driven jam perfect for cranking on the stereo while summertime cruising up Main Street.” — TIME

Continuing the return to the stage that has already included a triumphant headline appearance at the Newport Folk Festival and last week’s sold out shows in Boulder and Aspen, Ryan and band have added a new leg of November dates to their current tour. The new dates are on sale to the publicFriday, August 15 at 10am local time with artist pre-sales opening Thursday, August 14 at 10am local time (with the exception of Cleveland, which on sale 11am local time).
