There’s no question that Ryan Adams is one of the most talented singer-songwriters of his generation, but it’s also true that he’s one of the most fascinating, as well; after it was suggested, in the wake of the dissolution of his first band, Whiskeytown, that he hadn’t liked the idea of having to ‘play the game’ in order to get ahead, he felt uncomfortable enough with his own - hugely successful - solo career that, in 2004, he decided to form a new band - The Cardinals. Admittedly, the five full-length records they made all had Adams’ name on the cover, but that doesn’t mean they weren’t collaborative efforts, either. There was really no greater testament to that than the fact that, when they played live during the five years that they were a going concern, there was nobody - not Adams or anybody else - stood obviously front and centre on stage. Additionally, the setlists would lean heavily on Cardinals work, largely eschewing Adams’ solo canon or the work of Whiskeytown. Adams treated the band as equals, and that’s what made the shows they made so special - they weren’t just his backing band. Adams went back to flying solo in 2009, but it’d be inadvisable to bet against a reunion at some point; the alchemy present in their live shows was a rare thing indeed.
