TAS In Session: Ryan Adams

Singer and songwriter Ryan Adams has long shifted between wiry, raucous country rock and more tender, acoustic reveries; his 13th album, Ashes & Fire, which drops on Tuesday, October 11, falls squarely in the latter category. Produced by the legendary Glyn Johns, Ashes & Fire is a candid, contemplative album for Adams, who was also quite honest with host Claudia Marshall when he dropped by WFUV and The Alternate Side's Studio A. They chatted about the new album, his struggles with Ménière's disease and his decision to take a hiatus from music. After the jump, check out videos and highlights from that discussion, plus you can hear the session in its entirety when it airs on 90.7 WFUV on Tuesday, October 11 at 9 p.m.

The Alternate Side is a proud part of WFUV Public Radio from Fordham University,
