One Night Lonely is a 2021 live video album from American country musician Mary Chapin Carpenter. It was recorded and released 25 years after her first live performance video, Jubilee: Live at Wolf Trap, also recorded at the same venue.

Release and reception

[edit]

The performance followed from a series of "Songs from Home" performances that Carpenter live streamed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Writing for The Arts Desk, Liz Thomson calls this culmination of that series "beautifully shot" and a "a stunning performance" that is "thoughtful, thought-provoking, consoling, and utterly involving".[2] The recording was first made available for digital streaming on November 27, 2020,[1] followed by compact disc and vinyl LP releases on December 4.[2]

The album was nominated for Best Folk Album at the 64th Grammy Awards.[3]
