Where To Take Her - The 25 Sexiest Places on the Planet
The Seduction of a Ray LaMontagne Performance
GQ
April 2006
Grab her hand and lead her straight to the front of a packed, sweaty crowd. Ray LaMontagne, a bearded carpenter turned singer, just stands in one spot all night and strums his guitar. There's no light show, no flashy costumes, no drums. Just the man's voice. It's so slow and seductive, you're half waiting for the fans around you to start grabbing one another and making out. If she doesn't want to drag you to the coat check or into the bathroom at some point during the show, then put your hand on her chest and make sure she still has a beating heart.

Ray wins "Best Voice" in The 2006 Music Esky Awards
Esquire Magazine
April 2006
Mariah Carey may sell more records, but let's face it, Ray LaMontagne belts out after-dinner belches with more importance and integrity than the cleanest note she's ever squeaked. This reluctant factory-worker-turned-musician is as authoritative as James Earl Jones and as soulful as Al Green. Most important, every throaty syllable is judiciously designed to serve the song, not just its singer.
