Ryan Adams Dusts Off Cardinals Material At 9:30 Club

Last night singer-songwriter Ryan Adams celebrated the release of his self-titled 14th studio album at the 9:30 Club in Washington, D.C. While Adams’ 17-song performance included plenty of material from the new LP, he also dusted off a number of tunes from his time fronting The Cardinals in the mid and late ’00s.

Ryan kicked off the show with “Gimme Something Good,” the first single off the new album. He then performed “Fix It” from his time with The Cardinals. Later in the set, Adams dusted off “Easy Plateau” from 2005’s Cold Roses for the first time since 2009. Ryan and his band also busted out the title track from Cold Roses as well as “A Kiss Before I Go” off 2005’s Jacksonville City Nights. The evening also saw the live debuts of “Trouble” and “I Just Might” off the new LP.
