The Ones Ahead is the fourth studio album by Canadian-American singer-songwriter Beverly Glenn-Copeland, released on July 28, 2023, through Transgressive Records.

[3] Uncut stated that "throughout all nine songs, Glenn-Copeland's voice seems to exist on the eternal plane, powerful and vulnerable in equal measure, an elder sharing his knowledge in stirring sonic form",[3] while The Wire noted that "the album's stylistic breadth and the cinematic sweep of its production add up to a more polished version of the anthemic, collaborative sound cultivated on the tour, heard on his 2020 Live at Le Guess Who?

[3] Mojo described that its elements of "warbling soul, classical lieder, No Other's stage-musical rapture, the title track's echo of Copeland's 1986 New-Age-synth album Keyboard Fantasies [are] all united by his seemingly unshakeable belief in humanity".

[3] The Skinny's Marco Marcelline found there to be "just so many stand-outs here" and remarked that the album "carries a resolute message of hope for the world, backed up by Glenn-Copeland's evident wisdom".

[5] Reviewing the album for Pitchfork, Jesse Dorris called The Ones Ahead "a joyous, hope-filled showcase of his singular voice and healing vision", as well as "a remarkably assured statement of purpose" and "a staging ground for his vision and his voice".
