''Easy Tiger'' is the ninth studio album by Ryan Adams, released on June 26, 2007, on the Lost Highway label. Although the album is attributed solely to Adams, ''Easy Tiger'' features The Cardinals as his backing band, with Adams stating: "The only real concept of this record was complete and utter collaboration." In an interview, Adams states that the album contains "very, very simple, very easy songs that, in my opinion, were written on the periphery of some more complex work." ''Easy Tiger'' marks the first appearance of both guitarist Neal Casal and bassist Chris Feinstein, following the departures of J.P. Bowersock and Catherine Popper, respectively. Following the album's release, producer James Candiloro would go on to join The Cardinals as the band's pianist and keyboard player. The album debuted at #7 on the ''Billboard'' 200 with Adams highest first-week sales (61,000) and has sold 217,000 copies in the U.S. and 500,000 worldwide.〔Cohen, Jonathan.
