        Ryan Adams will release his new album <Ashes & Fire> October 11 on PAX-AM/Capitol in the U.S.. Adams' first solo album to be released via a new U.S. arrangement with his own PAX-AM label and EMI's Capitol in the U.S. and Canada, the album was recorded at Sunset Sound Factory in Hollywood and produced by Glyn Johns, renowned for his work with the likes of The Beatles, Bob Dylan, The Clash, The Who and The Rolling Stones---and whose son Ethan produced previous Ryan Adams albums Heartbreaker, Gold and 29.

　　"All great records start with great songs," commented Dan McCarroll, President of Capitol and Virgin Records. "<Ashes & Fire> will remind you why Ryan Adams is at the front of the line as one of his generation's most gifted artists."

　　From the slow burning stunner of an opener "Dirty Rain" through the infectious shuffle of the title track and irresistible harmonies of "Lucky Now" to the closing lament of "I Love You But I Don't Know What To Say". <Ashes & Fire> is arguably the most cohesive and beautiful album of Adams' distinguished career.

　　<Ashes & Fire> also features guest turns from Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers keyboardist Benmont Tench as well as Norah Jones who contributes piano and backing vocals on several tracks, including the lilting, acoustic overtures of "Come Home", the sumptuous ballad "Save Me" and the heartfelt "Kindness".
