British singer-songwriter Bobby Long emerged from London’s club scene with a reputation for creating memorable songs inhabited by hauntingly poetic lyrics. Since relocating to New York, he has released two CDs of powerful original material: the first—A Winter Tale (2011)—an homage to his acoustic roots, while the second—Wishbone (2013)—bears a grittier sound that showcases his sorrow-filled voice and his stellar guitar playing.
Ode to Thinking, his third full album, marries his varied musical influences, resulting in
a strong collection of compelling new songs. Recorded in Austin, Texas, it was supported by a highly successful PledgeMusic campaign and had a worldwide release from Compass Records on August 7, 2015.
