(New York, New York – May 18, 2018) – Grammy Award winner Ray LaMontagne releases his seventh studio album Part Of The Light today via RCA Records. The album was written and produced by LaMontagne and features the hypnotic first single, “Such A Simple Thing.”

“Such A Simple Thing” is currently building Top 3 on BDS’ AAA chart, just performed the track on BBC Two’s LATER…with Jools Holland (watch here) and was featured in last night’s season finale of ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy.  Additionally, LaMontagne is confirmed to perform the single on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on June 4^th. Fans who listen to the single on Spotify on a mobile device will get a chance to see a clip of a short film created by LaMontagne’s son, Tobias LaMontagne of Zap!Film.

In support of the album, LaMontagne is set to embark on his 31-date 2018 Part Of The Light Summer Tour on May 27^th at Sasquatch Music Festival and end at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on July 10^th.  Joining LaMontagne on the road will be very special guest Neko Case.  For dates, tickets and more information, please visit www.raylamontagne.com.

Ray LaMontagne has released 6 studio albums, 5 of which have reached Top 10 on Billboard’s Top Rock Albums chart and Billboard’s Digital Albums chart.  Additionally, his 2010 album God Willin’ & the Creek Don’t Rise won the Grammy for Best Folk Album and was nominated in the coveted Song of The Year category for “Beg Steal or Borrow.”

Each release from his catalogue over the last 13 years carries its own character and feel. Having worked with producers Ethan Johns, Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys and Jim James of My Morning Jacket, Ray’s vast sonic catalogue has been called everything from “a perfect throwback to the lost art of the album-length format,” from Entertainment Weekly to “epic and magical,” from Rolling Stone and “gorgeous and ambitious,” from Esquire.  NPR’s All Things Considered said that Ray throughout the course of his career “has continued to push himself in different directions,” while People called Ray a “marvel of nature.”
