If you have tickets for the upcoming Ryan Adams concert, consider yourself lucky. Just when it looks like Ryan Adams has hit the top of the folk-rock genre, he turns around and releases another critically acclaimed album. This time it’s “Ashes & Fire,” that Rolling Stone hails as his best album in years. It’s likely no surprise to many that he added dates to his current tour to meet demand.

“So much of the record deals with impending loss,” Adams told Rolling Stone about “Ashes & Fire.” “Not necessarily death but more the unraveling of the perfection of your perceptions.”
