Kevin Morby released Music From Montana Story, the soundtrack album for the 2021 feature film, Montana Story. Morby also confirmed new tour dates taking place later this year in the United States and Europe.
“It has long been a dream of mine to one day score a film and with Montana Story, I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect film to do so,” said Morby. “Against wide open landscapes, the film is patiently and masterfully captured and it was my job, alongside my collaborator Rob Barbato, to write a score with as much beauty and depth as the film itself. I’m so proud of how everything turned out and am forever grateful to directors Scott McGehee and David Siegel for bringing me on.”

Written, produced and directed by Scott McGehee and David Siegel, the neo-Western Montana Story depicts:
[T]he story of two estranged siblings (Haley Lu Richardson, Owen Teague) who return home to the family ranch they once knew and loved, confronting deep and bitter secrets in the process. It’s a human-scaled story set against a mythic American backdrop – Montana’s Big Sky Country, sprawling with vast outdoor spaces and lonesome homes. Morby’s Music From Montana Story articulates both that sprawl and lonesomeness with the precision and delicate mastery of an artist who has always written straight from the heart, often about the very Western people and places that shaped his sound.
The soundtrack release came accompanied with newly confirmed tour dates. Morby’s updates to his 2023 touring schedule include a batch of Midwestern shows in early April adjacent to previously announced appearances at the Big Ears Festival in Knoxville, Tennessee and the Mission Creek Music Festival in Iowa City, Iowa. Fellow singer-songwriter Erin Rae will support on the new April dates. Morby will then tour throughout Europe in June and July.
