Just Announced: Bobby Long returns to World Cafe Live on 4/17
FILED UNDER: Artists, Concert Previews, Events, News, Bobby Long, World Cafe Live
Bobby Long has announced a spring tour that brings him to World Cafe Live on April 17th. The British singer-songwriter will be supporting his second full-length Wishbone, out on February 19th through ATO. From what we’ve heard of the new album so far, Long’s time spent in the States seems to have rubbed off on his songwriting – lead single “In Your Way” pits a twangy Americana slide guitar against his classic British folk arrangements. Tickets for the Philadelphia date go on sale this Friday, February 8th, and more information can be found here. Stream “In Your Way” below and listen back to Bobby Long’s 2011 appearance on XPN’s World Cafe here.
