Long Way Home is the ninth studio album by American singer-songwriter Ray LaMontagne. It was released on August 16, 2024, by LaMontagne's own record label Liula Records with distribution by Thirty Tigers. The album was co-produced by LaMontagne and Seth Kauffman.[1]

Background

Long Way Home was announced on May 30, 2024, alongside its release date of August 16, 2024. The album is LaMontagne's first to be released independently after his previous albums were released by RCA Records in the United States.[2]

Promotion

The album was preceded by the release of three singles. The lead single, "Step Into Your Power", was released on June 5, 2024.[2] It topped Billboard's Adult Alternative Airplay chart in August 2024, becoming LaMontagne's third single to top the chart.[3] The album's title track was released as the second single on June 28, 2024.[4] The third and final single, "I Wouldn't Change a Thing", was released on July 26, 2024.[5]

Critical reception

No Depression wrote in their review of Long Way Home: "When Ray LaMontagne debuted two decades ago, his weathered tenor sounded otherworldly. Its power seemed unlikely from such a shy, subdued performer. Now entrenched in middle age, the New England singer-songwriter’s instrument is no less sonorous or wondrous. He has just grown into it. LaMontagne sounds more comfortable, and contented, than ever on his ninth studio album, Long Way Home."[6] When The Horn Blows deemed the album LaMontagne's "most reflective, and honest work to date."[7] RIFF Magazine praised the album for its versatility, highlighting tracks such as "Yearning", which it said recalls Bob Dylan's albums Nashville Skyline and Blood on the Tracks, and "And They Called Her California" and "The Way Things Are", which it compared to the works of Joni Mitchell.[8]
