Ryan Adams is Covering Taylor Swift’s “1989” Album
We all know Ryan Adams is a big fan of heavy metal, science fiction and comic books, but Taylor Swift? Who knew? As Instagram and Twitter told us last night, the alt-country rocker revealed that he and his band are covering Swift’s massive 1989 album in its entirety.
In addition to several shared photos of Swift lyrics on Instagram, Adams also shared an audio clip of his band’s recording of “Welcome to New York.” This, however, only surfaced once Swift got wind of Adams’ tribute and reached out to him via Twitter.
We don’t know yet if Adams will release his version of the 1989 album to the public, but since he owns and operates his own label, he can really do just about anything he wants.
Here’s last night’s Adams and Swift Instagram and Twitter action (from the beginning):
@hasief @TheRyanAdams is this true??????? I WILL PASS OUT.
