Ray LaMontagne

Ray LaMontagne is an American singer-songwriter known for a husky, emotive voice and intimate, folk- and soul-influenced songwriting. His arrangements often center on acoustic guitar and piano, shifting between spare, rustic production and fuller band textures, and his delivery emphasizes raw, personal lyricism and a roots-tinged sound. He emerged in the early 2000s and is associated with contemporary folk and Americana circles.
