Ryan Montbleau Band @ Infinity Music Hall & Bistro

Ryan Montbleau and his band are bringing their distinctive, long-fermenting blend of neo-folk, classic soul, and kick-out-the-jams Americana to Infinity Hall! 

Songs for Ryan Montbleau typically need to simmer. 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 before committing a definitive version to the hard drive.

For that and many other reasons, Montbleau’s next album, 'For Higher,' is quite literally a departure. Well-established out of his home base in the Northeast, the singer threw himself into New Orleans, where everything is slow-cooked, for a few fast-moving days -- and whipped up an instant delicacy.
