Sword & Stone

Ryan Adams

Short, hazy bursts of jangle-rock and rain-soaked balladry. A collection of sonic polaroids capturing the restless, lonely energy of New York after midnight.

A gentle, rain-slicked melancholy that feels like wandering through a city of ghosts.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the guitar chime on 'Manhattan in the Rain' mirrors the rhythmic patter of a storm against a windowpane.
