Lukas Nelson shares official music video for “Montana”

ACCLAIMED NEW ALBUM AMERICAN ROMANCE OUT NOW VIA SONY MUSIC NASHVILLE

EXTENSIVE FALL HEADLINE TOUR CONFIRMED

August 18, 2025 – Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and musician Lukas Nelsonshares the scenic new music video for his song “Montana” today, directed by Miles Reickert and Kehana Rose and filmed in Emigrant, MT. Watch/share HERE. 

“Montana” is from Nelson’s acclaimed new album, American Romance, which was released earlier this summer via Sony Music Nashville. Stream/purchase HERE. In support of the project, Nelson was recently featured on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Howard Stern Show, The Joe Rogan Experience and Rolling Stone’s Nashville Now Podcast.

In celebration of the new music, Nelson will embark on his extensive The American Romance Tour this fall, which includes stops at Austin’s Paramount Theatre (three nights), Dallas’ Majestic Theatre, Nashville’s The Pinnacle, Atlanta’s Buckhead Theatre, Washington D.C.’s Lincoln Theater, Philadelphia’s Brooklyn Bowl and Chicago’s The Vic among others. See below for full tour routing.

Produced by Grammy Award-winner Shooter Jennings (Brandi Carlile, Tanya Tucker), American Romance cements Nelson as a singular artist, as he showcases his songwriting dexterity and country-blended sound in a way that feels both familiar and new. Across the twelve tracks, including collaborations with Sierra Ferrell and Stephen Wilson Jr., Nelson tells stories of his life on the road, detailing the joys, complexities, beauty and heartbreak he’s encountered during his travels across the country.  

Reflecting on the project, Nelson shares, “This album is the first chapter in a whole new era of my life as an artist. It’s a love story to the country that raised me. Diners and highways that carried me through the joy and pain that led to the music you hear now.”

In addition to Nelson and Jennings, the record also features special contributions from Anderson East (“Disappearing Light,” producer) and SistaStrings (“Montana,” cello and viola) as well as Matt Chamberlain (drums), Corey McCormick (bass), Marty Muse (dobro), Russ Pahl (pedal steel), Chris Powell (drums), Brian Whelan (acoustic guitar) and Eleanor Whitmore (fiddle).
