Getting Dressed in the Dark is the debut country music album of artist Jaron Lowenstein, more commonly known as Jaron and the Long Road to Love. It was released on June 22, 2010 via Universal Republic. [3]
The album's first single, "Pray for You", was released in November 2009, and has become a Top 20 single on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, as well as a Top 40 single on the Billboard Hot 100. The album's second single, "That's Beautiful to Me" was released on radio on September 7, 2010, but it failed to reach the Top 40. A third single, "It's a Good Thing", was released on April 18, 2011, but it failed to chart.
Lowenstein wrote or co-wrote all of the songs on the album. "It's a Good Thing" was co-written by Sarah Buxton, and Lowenstein's twin brother Evan, with whom he formerly recorded as Evan and Jaron.
Matt Bjorke of Roughstock gave the album a four-star rating, calling each song "well-written and produced country/pop tunes" and a "strong storyteller's album." [2] Giving it two-and-a-half stars, Andrew Leahey of Allmusic thought that the lyrics were "ballsy" by country music standards, but thought that the album's sound was bland and more influenced by pop than country.

All tracks are written by Jaron Lowenstein, except where noted.
