Ray LaMontagne

Last night Lindsey and I went to see Ray LaMontagne at the Paramount Theatre in Seattle. We haven’t been listening to his music too long, but a good friend at work had some extra tickets and we were the lucky recipients. His music is definitely pretty interesting. He has a very raspy voice that reminds many people of Van Morrison. His songs tend to be a little bit dark, and melancholy at times, but the intensity of his performance makes for a great show.
Ray is an interesting character to watch on stage. During the first few songs he wouldn’t say anything to the crowd, which is typical of him. After a few songs he finally started talking to the audience in a very quite and reserved voice.
I think Lindsey and baby enjoyed the show too, though Lindsey got pretty hungry about half-way through the concert. I guess next time I’ll have to bring along some snacks 😉
