COVER OF THE WEEK: “Let it Ride” by Gareth Asher

SONG: “Let it Ride”
ORIGINAL ARTIST: RYAN ADAMS
COVER ARTIST: GARETH ASHER

This is actually one of my favorite songs by RYAN ADAMS and after hearing the butchering of “Stars Go Blue” by country artist, TIM McGRAW, I am always skeptical of hearing any Ryan song covered. Ryan brings so much emotion and strength to his songs, but knowing GARETH ASHER, I knew this cover would not suck. Gareth never betrays the power of the original song but adds to it with his voice and emotion.
