Ray LaMontagne announces 20th anniversary tour for Trouble, with Irish dates

Ray LaMontagne will celebrate the 20th anniversary of his debut album Trouble with a tour across Ireland, the UK, Europe and North America.

In 2026 he will visit Dublin’s 3Olympia Theatre on May 20 and 21, and Belfast’s Waterfront Hall on May 22. Artist, Three+, MCD and Venue pre-sale will kick off on May 6 at 9 a.m., with Spotify pre-sale set for May 8 at the same time. General sales will begin the following day at 9 a.m.

“Twenty years,” said LaMontagne. “Two Decades. That’s a lot of water under the bridge. Every cell in my body has changed three times over in that time. I have been three times reborn. There are moments in your life when you need to place a marker. Some people think that it is brave, or fearless, to never look back. I don’t believe that. For the simple reason that if you never look back you will never see how far you have come. This year I place a sign post: twenty years of Trouble.”

The Grammy award winner will also drop a remastered vinyl edition of the album, set for release on June 13. Fans can pre-order the record now.

“When Trouble was initially released vinyl was considered a dead format, never to breathe again,” he said. “Digital audio was the new King. As we know this has proved untrue. Each year more and more music lovers are listening to vinyl and appreciating it for its depth and breadth of sound, for its physical heft, for its tangible realness. Over the past few months Brian Lee and Bob Jackson at Waygate Mastering have remastered the album for the first time specifically for vinyl. And I have to say, it sounds incredible. They have managed to bring out subtleties in the vocals, the instrumentation, that were somehow lost previously. It sounds as if a sonic veil has been lifted. I cannot thank them enough.”

Upon its release in 2004, Trouble charted on the Billboard 200 and was certified RIAA Platinum. It earned him three Boston Music Awards for Best Male Singer, Songwriter, Album of the Year and Song of the Year, and an XM Nation Music Award for Acoustic Rock Artist of the Year. Over the course of his career, LaMontagne has received two Grammy nominations and won Best Contemporary Folk Album for God Willin’ and the Creek Don’t Rise. His most recent album, Long Way Home, dropped in August of 2024.

Fans can pre-order the remastered vinyl here. Tickets to his tour will be available here.
