1989

Ryan Adams

A track-by-track reimagining of Taylor Swift's pop juggernaut as a moody, analog-warm rock record. Wistful, guitar-driven, and soaked in late-night atmosphere.

September 21, 2015 · Sony Music

Find on Amazon

A twilight-hued reflection on fame and heartbreak that trades pop polish for raw, analog intimacy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transformation of Shake It Off into a somber, minor-key acoustic meditation on isolation.
The jangling, Johnny Marr-inspired guitar lines that drive the reimagined version of Style.
The way Out of the Woods stretches into a six-minute atmospheric epic with soaring, reverb-drenched vocals.
