This Path Tonight is the sixth solo studio album by British singer-songwriter Graham Nash, released on 15 April 2016. It is his first studio album in fourteen years.

When he wrote the tunes for This Path Tonight, Nash's separation from his wife Susan after 38 years of marriage was weighing most heavily on his mind. As he stated about the new album: "This Path Tonight is my emotional journey at this point in my life. [...] Many changes are happening and, as a musician, I'm trying to find the courage to face my future and grab a hold of it. [...] My producer [former Springsteen/Maria McKee sideman] Shane Fontayne and I wanted to make a funkier, more intimate feeling and started the album with the song "This Path Tonight"."

Nash also stated: "What a pleasure it was recording this album. Shane Fontayne and I had written 20 songs in a month and recorded them in eight days. I felt comfortable on day one even though I'd never met some of the musicians before that moment. Shane, who produced the album, put together a great band: Todd Caldwell (hammond organ), Jay Bellerose (drums, percussion), Jennifer Condos (bass), Patrick Warren (piano), Shane Fontayne (guitars). My music has a different feel to my earlier albums although I hear echoes of each one. This journey of mine was one of self-discovery, of intense creation, of absolute passion. Enjoy!"

On 22 January 2016, Nash announced the forthcoming release on 15 April 2016 of his new studio album entitled This Path Tonight (his first collection of new songs in fourteen years) and shared the title track from it through the MOJO magazine's website.

On 4 February 2016, Rolling Stone magazine's website exclusively unveiled the reflective song "Encore", the tender tune that wraps up Nash's new album.
