LaMontagne’s upcoming album, “Long Way Home,” is deeply rooted in his personal experiences and influences. It pays homage to his youth and the challenges of adulthood and is a testament to his growth and resilience throughout his journey in the music industry.

In addition to his musical releases, LaMontagne has announced a new series of solo headlining U.S. tour dates with support from The Secret Sisters, including performances in Austin, New Orleans, and Orlando. This follows the successful release of his first single, “Step Into Your Power,” accompanied by a stop-motion music video animated by his son Tobias.

Produced in collaboration with Seth Kauffman, “Long Way Home” embraces a country folk-rock sound reminiscent of the early seventies while maintaining a contemporary Americana vibe. The album features long-time and new collaborators, including backing vocals from The Secret Sisters on the first three tracks.

LaMontagne has released eight studio albums: Trouble, Till the Sun Turns Black, Gossip in the Grain, God Willin’ & the Creek Don’t Rise, Supernova, Ouroboros, Part of the Light, and Monovision. He was born in New Hampshire and was inspired to create music after hearing an album by Stephen Stills. Critics have compared LaMontagne’s music to Otis Redding, Ryan Adams, Beck, Pink Floyd, The Band, Van Morrison, Nick Drake, and Tim Buckley.

LaMontagne won four awards for his debut album, including three Boston Music Awards (Best Male Singer-Songwriter, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year) and an XM Nation Music Award for Acoustic Rock Artist of the Year. LaMontagne has received a nomination from the Pollstar Concert Industry Awards for Best New Touring Artist, the BRIT Awards for International Breakthrough Act, the MOJO Awards for Best New Act, and was given the title of Best Voice in 2006 by Esquire.

In 2011, Ray LaMontagne and the Pariah Dogs received two Grammy Award nominations, and they were awarded the Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk Album for God Willin’ & the Creek Don’t Rise.
