OBJECTIVE
To release self-produced, self-titled new album September 9 on PAX-AM/Blue Note and tour said record throughout 2014 and 2015.
COMPETENCIES & SKILLS
Design and construction of PAX-AM studios in Los Angeles to serve as home of self-owned-and-operated PAX-AM label to serve as home base for all things PAX-AM from new singles series to recording studio where responsibilities as owner/operator include producing records by other artists including Jenny Lewis and Fall Out Boy.
Securing of numerous Grammy nominations with zero wins as recently as 2011’s Ashes & Fire, and going back all the way to Gold and “New York, New York” among others.
EXPERIENCE
September 2013 to Present – Ryan Adams – Writing, recording and producing self-titled new record, first in a new PAX-AM/Blue Note alliance. 11 new songs, beginning with “Gimme Something Good,” the first vinyl single to go #1 at the Amazon.com music store. “Gimme Something Good” is also an Entertainment Weekly Must List recipient (“scorches with Stonesian bravado and a fist-pump-worthy chorus”), praised by Time (“a gritty guitar-driven jam perfect for cranking on the stereo while summertime cruising up Main Street… highlights Adams’ sustained ability to play intimate-sounding arena rock”), Stereogum (“he doesn’t seem to have lost a songwriting step. This thing is a total knockout.”), and others. Recorded at PAX-AM with help from Jeremy Stacey (drums), Benmont Tench (keys), Mike Viola (all sorts of stuff), Marshall Vore (drums, percussion), Tal Wilkenfeld (bass), and additional assists from Johnny Depp and Mandy Moore.
