Ray Lamontagne

There are times when you hear something that makes you stop and turn your head. Ray Lamontagne is one of those people. He blends that smooth, cool, and soulful feel of Sam &Dave with the acoustic folk troubadour thing. He manages to pull it off by having great songwriting chops and a warm gravelly voice that has an incredible amount of feeling in it. Despite this visceral component of his music the former Lewiston Maine factory worker seems to be an incredible introvert. Definately I a guy I'd drink a beer with.
