About

Ray Lamontagne is no stranger to the world Folk music. His fourth album, "God Willin' & The Creek Don't Rise," released in 2010, won the Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk album, and he subsequently embarked on the 2011 Pariah Dogs Summer Tour, so named after his new band The Pariah Dogs. With a soulful upper register and a breathless falsetto that adds hints of R&B to otherwise straightforward folk arrangements, LaMontagne's voice is always at the center of his performances. The typically reticent singer keeps banter to a minimum at his concerts, pouring his concentration into the songs, at times even singing with his eyes closed.

LaMontagne's journey to the spotlight has been anything but conventional. Though he released his debut album "Trouble" in September 2004, it didn't receive popular attention until nearly two years later, when it made a top five entry in the UK charts and eventually went on to sell over 250,000 units in the US alone. By the time of his second release, 2006's "Til the Sun Turns Black," LaMontagne was fast becoming a household ticket, his songs appearing in television shows like "Rescue Me," "Grey's Anatomy," and "Bones." Once again teaming with producer Ethan Johns, LaMontagne's critically-acclaimed third album "Gossip in the Grain" entered the Billboard charts at No. 3, his highest entry to date, entering the Billboard charts at No. 3.

Though not a radical departure from his earlier output, God Willin' & the Creek Don't Rise marked a subtle changes to LaMontagne's sound and recording process. He opted to self-produce the album at his home in Massachusetts, and it marked the first collaborative release with his band the Pariah Dogs. While a few songs venture into slightly more aggressive territory (bookends “Repo Man” and “Devil's in the Jukebox”), the album is otherwise characterized by hazy Americana instrumentation and LaMontagne's yearning vocals.

    Soul Stirring

    by AlesiaRH on 3/9/24Paramount Theatre - Seattle

    Ray LaMontagne was a force to be reckoned with on this night! His music is moody, deep, and visceral, as he weaves melodies with story-telling that moves the soul. I felt tears rise to the surface and spill down my cheeks, more than once, as his music and voice transported me to other realities. He played all the favorites and never wavered once on stage ~ bringing all his energy to the performance. What an amazing night.... one of those concerts that you did not want to end. So grateful that he blessed us with his presence; he is one of those musicians who can capture an audience with just his voice and his guitar, requiring very little from other musicians in order to create a truly magical night.

    Fantastic!!

    by Dana on 11/6/23Orpheum Theatre - Los Angeles

    Ray LaMontagne is fantastic and the concert was wonderful. His band members are amazing and I loved the multitude of instruments they played. Ray’s voice and lyrics/music are moving and beautiful. I loved his vulnerability and the sharing of some of his life stories. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful, romantic evening. Thank you!

    Balm for the soul

    by PK on 10/30/23The Masonic - San Francisco

    I had missed his Vancouver, BC show due to covid so once I was feeling better, I decided to drive to San Francisco for his show a week later. I'm so glad I did. It was the 3rd time I've seen him and I'd say this was the best show yet. He was more talkative than he has been and the personal anecdotes and stories just added to songs he shared from his catalogue. Great venue. Great show. I look forward to seeing him again.

    Chatty women ruined the show

    by Vincent on 10/24/23Orpheum Theatre - Los Angeles

    3 loud talkative seemingly intoxicated women sitting behind me ruined the show. One on particular was yelping out during Rays most mellow of moments. Singing off key , singing the wrong songs & never stopping to talk throughout. We asked them to quiet door em but it was short lived. We were able to switch our seats over the last 10 minutes of the show but it was too little too late.

    Good not great.

    by Jcdc on 10/22/23The Masonic - San Francisco

    It was good. Not mind blowing and not quite as good as last years show imho but still very enjoyable . Just a little underwhelming. Ray was great, other musicians weren’t quite as good. Overall worth it and it was a fun night. Last years show just set the bar really high.

    Ray was AMAZING. Venue was not the best.

    by Ray all day on 10/20/23Orpheum Theatre - Los Angeles

    Absolutely loved Ray Lamontagne’s performance. Such a great genuine person and sounds just as good if not better live. The only downfall was the venue. Not the best venue for fans who want to sing along and dance to the music. It is a theater vibe so it’s intimate and quiet. But regardless, Ray was amazing.
