Ryan Adams preps third CD of 2005

November 15, 2005 at 02:03:00 PM

Singer/songwriter, currently playing a series of concerts in New York City, sees sales boost from heavy output.

Singer/songwriter Ryan Adams is following through on his pledge to release three albums this year.

On the heels of May's Cold Roses and September's Jacksonville City Nights, the series will conclude with 29, due December 20 via Lost Highway.

While the first two projects were credited to Adams and his new band, the Cardinals, 29 is billed as a solo album. The set features contributions from the Cardinals' J.P. Bowersock as well as bassist Jennifer Condos, who previously played on Adams' Gold.

The ambitious 2005 release slate has generated significant sales for the artist. Cold Roses has moved more than 123,000 units, while Jacksonville City Nights has shifted more than 57,000. Adams' best-selling release to date is 2001's Gold, which has moved nearly 350,000 copies.

Adams will play a two-night stand beginning tomorrow, Wednesday, with Willie Nelson at New York's Beacon Theatre. He will headline his own gig Friday at the city's new Tribeca Performing Arts Center as part of the Wall Street Rising concert series.

no wonder he's so grumpy all the time, he apparently doesn't sleep much.

It was, Ryan Adams says, this girl he’s been spending time with; the title of this album is her fault. “She wanted to go out to dinner at eight; I wanted to go right away. She said, ‘Easy, Tiger.’ And that hit me. It stuck with me to the point where I called up Neal [that would be Neal Casal, guitarist of The Cardinals] and left...

Last time we received a dispatch from Ryan Adams, the self-styled savior of rock & roll, it was in 2003, when he delivered his straight-up rock & roll record (aptly titled Rock N Roll) and his two-part mope-rock EP (later combined as one LP) Love Is Hell. Admirable records both, but not quite the sequel to Heartbreaker that fans craved. They...

Ever since the big, splashy Gold failed to make Ryan Adams an all-conquering superstar -- it bolstered his reputation as a rock critic darling, but never had the sales to match the press -- he's retreated to genre exercises, beginning with the sleek modern rock of 2003's Rock N Roll and its moody alt-rock counterpart, Love Is Hell, carrying...
