Ethan Johns to release new single produced by Ryan Adams

Kings Of Leon and Laura Marling producer announces his latest solo release

Ethan Johns will release the Ryan Adams-produced single ‘Don’t Reach Too Far’ on May 20, the singer has confirmed.

The track also features Adams on drums and bass and was recorded at the singer’s Pax-Am studios in Los Angeles. It’s taken from Ethan Johns’ album ‘If Not Now, Then When?’, which came out last November.

Johns is best known as a producer himself, having worked on albums by Kings Of Leon, The Vaccines and Laura Marling before embarking on a career as a solo artist.

Speaking about his work with Ryan Adams, Johns says: “If punk was invented by cowboys in Texas and beamed to a Sears & Roebuck reel to reel in a garage in Long Beach in 1963, it might have sounded like this.”
