Ryan Montbleau Band with Lake Shore Drive December 15, 2012

In his 10-year career this gifted singer and his limber band have built their catalog the old-fashioned way, by introducing new songs to their live set, then bending and shaping them over dozens of performances. Montbleau’s album, 'For Higher,' released in May 2012, is quite literally a departure. The new album draws a lot of its depth and beauty from its cover songs. The band is already feeding hungrily on the arrangements from the new album in their live sets.
