Down Here is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Tracy Bonham, released on April 18, 2000, through Island Records. The album was recorded between March 1998 and December 1999 by Bonham and producers Mitchell Froom, Tchad Blake, Mark Endert and Don Gilmore. The album was supposed to be released in October 1998 under the title Trail of a Dust Devil, but was delayed until the spring of 2000, as Island was going through a major restructuring.

Down Here received generally positive reviews from critics. However, the album struggled to find an audience in a musical climate dominated by nu metal, and it experienced virtually no radio airplay.[1] The album and its only single, "Behind Every Good Woman" failed to appear on any sales charts worldwide.[3] Down Here was Bonham's final album for Island.[4]
