Bobby Long

broadside ballads

Bobby Moved to London from the west country three years ago to do music and write and play as much as possible. He is currently working on an Ep and co-wrote a song with Marcus Foster that was used on the Twilight Soundtrack. His music is like drops of rain on a bull fighters back like punches breaking through a Windy Gail. This July bobby will be embarking on "The Dangerous Summer Tour" playing 80 dates around America and then onto Europe for a small city tour. In October he will again be making his way to America before Australia in january. Just like riding the old railroads.

"Next up, who remembers Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem? Yup, they were the Muppets house band, and FLIPRON are their mirror image; all glam afros, fairy lights and lunatic flash ... There's a disregard for creative limits going on here, and it's warping expectations of what we can expect from live music. ... Who is the baboon? Who cares, I don't even know who I am after these brilliant bastards have played."–Ric Rawlins, Artrocker
