Trouble
Ray Lamontagne
After hearing Stephen Stills on the radio, the artist quit his job to focus on music. His delivery is gravelly and soulful, sounding like a discovery from a different era.
Ethan Johns produced these songs with a raw, analog warmth. By avoiding studio polish, the recordings highlight the intimacy of the performances and the deep nature of the lyrics.
