Grammy Award winner Ray LaMontagne is set to tour 10 cities
across the US this fall. The acoustic tour will begin on November 16th in
Washington DC and end on December 3rd in Columbus, Ohio with
one of the stops being at New York City’s historic Carnegie Hall. Tickets will
be available for sale starting September 7th for select
cities.
Ray will also play at “Love for Levon” a benefit celebrating
the life and music of Levon Helm. The benefit will be held on
October 3rd at the Izod Center in East Rutherford, NJ. All
net proceeds from the concert will help support the lasting legacy of Levon
Helm by helping his estate keep ownership of his home, barn and studio, and to
continue The Midnight Ramble Sessions.
More recently Ray teamed up with Dana Bourgeois to
release a limited edition Bourgeois guitar called The Ray LaMontagne
Limited Edition Signature Series. Being a huge fan of Bourgeois
guitars himself it was a natural fit to join forces and create a guitar built
for touring. There are only 33 Ray LaMontagne Signature Series guitars
signed by both Dana Bourgeois and Ray on the label inside of the
guitar. For more information please visit http://www.pantheonguitars.com/.
In August 2010, Ray LaMontagne and the Pariah Dogs’ released
the critically acclaimed, Grammy award winning album God Willin’
& the Creek Don’t Rise. The album debuted at #3 on the
Billboard Top 200 and #1 on the Digital Album chart. This marked a personal
sales best for Ray and tied his debut chart position at #3 with Gossip
in the Grain. In addition to winning Best Contemporary Folk
Album for God Willin’ & the Creek Don’t Rise, the album also
garnered nominations for the coveted Song of The Year category for “Beg Steal
or Borrow” as well as Best Engineered Album. The single, “Beg Steal
or Borrow” became Ray’s first radio #1.
