Ryan Adams Plays Surprise Gig

At 4 p.m. yesterday, Ryan Adams & The Cardinals showed up for a secret (unless you're obsessed and knew about it already) gig at New York's Cafe Select.

They played a few tunes from Cardinology, their new album, which came out yesterday, and took a few fan requests for two songs from 2005's Cold Roses.

Here is what they played:

"Born Into A Light"
"Evergreen"
"Fix It"
"Magick"
"Natural Ghost"
"If I Am A Stranger"
"Cherry Lane"
"Let Us Down Easy"

Some nice person took a video during "Fix It," which is probably the most radio-friendly song Adams has released to date. You can watch it below:

This is what the original version of the song sounds like, in case you haven't heard it already:
