Lizzy McAlpine "Apple Pie"

Ryan Montbleau (Solo) at Club Passim with Lizzy McAlpine
Hosted by Club Passim and Ryan Montbleau
Ryan Montbleau has been an acclaimed singer, songwriter, and bandleader for more than a decade, but with his new album I Was Just Leaving the New England-based artist has truly arrived. Contemplative and richly emotive, the album offers a glimpse into the often-lonesome life of the relentlessly traveling troubadour, a strikingly single-minded existence too often clouded by the blur of constant motion. Recorded at New Orleans’ Esplanade Studios over four days in January 2016 with producer Anders Osborne and engineer/mixer Mark Howard (known for his work with such icons as Bob Dylan, Tom Waits, Neil Young, and U2), the album marks Montbleau’s first full length release in the wake of a series of seismic personal shifts.

It is very rare to find such a pure, passionate, and beautiful composition as this. I just want to say thank you to Lizzy for creating and sharing your gift with us.

Some days I'm lonely
And some days I'm not
Some days I am only
A little bit sad, not a lot
How do you
How do you make a home?
What to do
'Cause I never stay too long
Every house looks the same
In my dreams
Every house feels like home
For a couple weeks
I been runnin' 'round
Try'na find a place where I can breathe
But me oh my
I found you
Under an april sky
And you feel like
City life, apple pie baked just right
Home is wherever you are tonight
Some days I feel empty
Some days feel home
Some day we can be in the same city
Some day we'll be grown and i'll be fine
With packing up, cardboard boxes filled and sad farewells
And I'll be fine we'll pack a bag
As long as I say goodbye to you as well
'Cause every house looks the same
In my dreams
Every house feels like home
For a couple weeks
I been runnin' 'round
Try'na find a place where I can breathe
But me oh my
I found you
Under an april sky
And you feel like
City life, apple pie baked just right
Home is wherever you are tonight
Let's rent a place
Two rooms with windows facing
Buildings and fire escapes
Might be no AC
A little bit cramped
But see I'm with you, it's okay
Me oh my
I found you under an april sky
And you feel like
City life, apple pie baked just right
Home is wherever you are tonight

[@potato.pancake]

i’m so jealous that you got to see her in a small setting like this

[@01halle]

Oh wow she sounds just like the recordings aaaahhh!! Love it

She is ridiculously perfect.

Thank God for TH-cam/instagram.... These platforms allow "true" performers get exposure. Talented musicians that write and perform their own songs. No more karaoke stars that sing "purchased" music from other writers. We have too many of these already.

[@TerriBingham]

I thought the same. Without youtube we wouldn't be able to help incredible artist like this make the living they deserve. So grateful to youtube for making it possible for artist like this to reach a bigger artist without selling their publishing or souls to the majors.

[@RhysAxlPereira1993]

I prefer this version, over the original

[@madmanmusic4162]

Wow!! An artist at work!! Just beautiful!!
