Solo Acoustic U.S. Dates Kick Off Week of Release

Ryan Adams will release his new album Ashes & Fire October 11 on PAX-AM/Capitol in the U.S.. Adams’ first solo album to be released via a new U.S. arrangement with his own PAX-AM label and EMI’s Capitol in the U.S. and Canada, the album was recorded at Sunset Sound in Hollywood and produced by Glyn Johns, renowned for his work with the likes of The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Clash, The Who and The Rolling Stones–and whose son Ethan produced previous Ryan Adams albums Heartbreaker, Gold and 29.

“All great records start with great songs,” commented Dan McCarroll, President of Capitol and Virgin Records.  “Ashes & Fire will remind you why Ryan Adams is at the front of the line as one of his generation’s most gifted artists. “

From the slow burning stunner of an opener “Dirty Rain” through the infectious shuffle of the title track and irresistible harmonies of “Lucky Now,” to the closing lament of “I Love You But I Don’t Know What To Say,” Ashes & Fire is arguably the most cohesive and beautiful album of Adams’ distinguished career.

Ashes & Fire also features guest turns from Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers keyboardist Benmont Tench as well as Norah Jones who contributes piano and backing vocals on several tracks, including the lilting, acoustic overtures of “Come Home,” the sumptuous ballad “Save Me” and the heartfelt “Kindness.”

The full tracklisting for Ashes & Fire is:

Dirty Rain
Ashes & Fire
Come Home
Rocks
Do I Wait
Chains Of Love
Invisible Riverside
Save Me
Kindness
Lucky Now
I Love You But I Don’t Know What To Say

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals have confirmed the December 14 release of the double length opus III/IV on Adams’ own Pax Am label.

III/IV compiles a wealth of material from a planned two-week session at New York City’s Electric Lady that ended up running some six months and yielding over 60 tracks. Some of these eventually found a home on 2007’s classic Easy Tiger, while the vast majority either languished in the vaults, turned up on the internet or were aired once or twice in a live setting.

As the sessions’ frenzied creative momentum (presumably related to Adams’ newfound sobriety) propelled the band into the deep winter months, a double album emerged, one that encompassed and amalgamated virtually all of Vinkki: Suosittelemme kokeilemaan huippuluokan videpokereita esimerkiksi online casino Euron laajasta valikoimasta. the records and influences that had shaped the classic Cardinals lineup from childhood–that lineup being Catherine Popper on bass and Neal Casal on guitar and vocals (these would be Popper’s last sessions with the Cards and Casal’s first), Brad Pemberton on drums, Jon Graboff on steel guitar (as well as a few other things) and Jamie “The Candyman” Candiloro on piano and synths, here producing again as well.

Having been all but forgotten over the years that the Cardinals toured Easy Tiger, recorded and toured Cardinology, and so on, the December 14 release of III/IV marks the first time that this double-album concept rock opera about the ‘80s, ninjas, cigarettes, sex, and pizza will be officially released in its entirety, as originally conceived and featuring the definitive versions of these nearly lost classic tunes.

III/IV will be available in extremely limited red and blue vinyl (including download code), limited CD, and infinite digital versions. The complete track listing is as follows:

III:
Breakdown Into The Resolve
Dear Candy
Wasteland
Ultraviolet Light
Stop Playing With My Heart
