This one came a little out of the blue, with indie heartthrob Ryan Adams posting a video of himself playing a cover of Vampire Weekend’s “Mansard Roof” on his facebook page, which has seemingly been recorded using his webcam. Adams, who seems to be enjoying his role as a performer once more, calls this “track one,” which suggests that there are more to come. He also says of the cover “I do it no justice but I love it. I sung it imagining being on a beach made of diamonds with a darkened night sky full of twinkling sand.”
