Ray LaMontagne

Ray LaMontagne is a gifted American singer-songwriter known for his raspy voice and soulful music that often blends folk, rock, and acoustic blues elements. Born in Nashua, New Hampshire, on June 18, 1973, Ray drew inspiration from a life-changing epiphany prompted by Stephen Stills' song "Tree Top Flyer," which compelled him to pursue a career in music despite having no formal training.

Lauded for his introspective lyrics and emotional delivery, LaMontagne continued to build his discography with a series of well-received albums. His most recent releases, including "MONOVISION" (2020) and the singles "Broken Sky / It Takes Me Back" and "I Was Born To Love You" illustrate his adeptness at crafting timeless melodies that resonate with audiences worldwide. In "Part Of The Light" (2018) and his reflective project "Ouroboros" (2016), Ray LaMontagne showcases his inclination towards exploring different sounds and production techniques while maintaining the authentic, heartfelt storytelling that has become his trademark. His ability to create profound connections with listeners through his music has secured his status as a beloved artisan in the folk-rock genre.
