Our first glimpse of new material possibly set for Ryan Adams’ forthcoming Glyn Johns-produced LP arrived late last night, as Adams performed a surprise solo acoustic set at Los Angeles’ El Rey Theatre opening for his friend and “Oh My Sweet Carolina” duet partner Emmylou Harris. Not only did he revisit the aforementioned Heartbreaker single — alongside Harris of course — but he also unveiled at least four new songs that made their way online in the small hours of the night.
Below, you can watch Adams perform “Dirty Rain,” a new tune he played last fall at a benefit concert, as well as three more incredibly promising songs alongside the Emmylou duet:
