It was easy to reach burnout on Norah Jones fairly quickly. It’s too bad too because she’s very talented, but she was everywhere and that’s hard to take for too long. Some cool news out of her camp today though, as Ryan Adams decided to co-write a song with her. It’s called “Light As A Feather” and you can listen to it here. You can thank NPR for the listen and if you are dying to hear

When we first heard about a discussion between Ryan Adams and Mary-Louise Parker at the New York Public Library, it sounded too good to be true. Parker is not only one of the best actresses around (her turn in Angels in America has been...

While Ryan Adams' indefinite hiatus from music is tragic... there are two silver linings.First, if you are a fan of art or poetry... then you may be happy about his break from music. He has currently released two books full of short stories and poetry entitled, Infinity Blues and Hello Sunshine. I'd say the vast majority of the material is strange/weird/involves unnecessary profanity (e.g. " Ci...

Earlier this summer, we reported that Ryan Adams was set to relaunch his own vinyl label, Pax-Am Records. As it turned out, Adams went the digital route first and gave us only a few teases that vinyl releases were down the road. Well, thanks to a...

Courtney Love has used her MySpace blog and Twitter to call Ryan Adams every name in the book, but Adams, the former online ranter himself, has stayed stoically quiet amid Love’s accusations… until now. Apparently, the final straw for Adams was...

Elizabethtown Sessions (2005)Unreleased Session TapesYou almost get the feeling Ryan Adams contributed to Cameron Crowe's Elizabethtown just to get access to a studio. Besides "Come Pick Me Up" (not included), which made it to the movie soundtrack's album, Adams offers up 18 other tracks recorded, presumably, for film consideration. I don't know his catalog well enough to know what eventually t...

My review of Infinity Blues can be found (click here) on treblezine.comRyan Adamsby Adrian Ernesto Cepeda 03.17.2009 Ryan Adams described his first literary tome, "Infinity Blues as" "…the jewel of my life's work. Who I am is this book." Many of us like to think we know who Ryan Adams is by his confessional songwriting style that we adore from his memorable songs. Adams' writing technique is a .

On his solo debut Heartbreaker, Ryan Adams of Whiskeytown got a little rowdier, with subterranean explorations of Dylan ("To Be Young") and Rolling Stones honky-tonk ("Shakedown on 9th Street").The rest of the album, though, is sparer than anything from Whiskeytown's days. Here, Adams' fingerpicked guitar and maturing songwriting hold the spotlight, on tunes of love and loss. As to "Oh My Sweet Ca

The current tour that finds Ryan Adams & The Cardinals serving as the opening act for Oasis is an interesting juxtaposition to say the least. On one end of the bill, you've got a turgid group of limey rock dinosaurs who've relied on the same stodgy formula for the past 15 years and on the other you've got the shy and spazy alt-country manchild who has made a career of constantly reinventing him

On a sleepy Sunday in Cambridge, a quiet Ryan Adams bashed through a set of old and new material. Frequently entertaining but, in the end, missing a level of involvement.

I played this (live) Ryan Adams track on the SIRIUS show several weeks ago and have since received several emails inquiring as to its origin. "Dreams Of A Working Class Clown" is a, live, piano ballad Adams had in his regular rotation in the Spring of 2001 just prior to the release of Gold. It [...]

Dear Ryan Adams... Read your blog today, with the retort to my report.~~

--- - I didn't think it was possible. I didn't think a grown man (38), who plays guitar (pretty good too), who bled classic rock in high school (and beyond), didn't know the "Cowboy Song." But that is what I was met with Sunday night, after Dave and I attended the (fairly epic) Ryan Adams show. "You've [...]- Ryan Adams

According to this extremely dubious British Web site , Ryan Adams ' next album will not be a Ryan Adams album -- it'll be billed under just Cardinals -- and it's due out October 27. A boy can dream. In the meantime, the band's been playing new songs and they sound like Cold Roses after a bowl of oatmeal, which I guess isn't a major revelation. Dude's gotta get his fiber. Here's the best of them...
