Fresh off an incredible tour in the UK and Europe including ten sold out shows, Bobby Long is gearing up for the forthcoming release of his sophomore album Wishbone, out February 19th on ATO Records. The British-born artist who calls New York City home will tour North America in support of the album this spring and summer, including performances at SXSW 2013. Upcoming dates in the Midwest and Northeast in March and April are below.

Fans can pre-order Wishbone at BobbyLong.info to qualify for a free download of the “Bedroom EP” featuring 5 unreleased songs, and a chance at winning a premium bundle of Bobby Long swag.

Digital pre-order available on iTunes

Recorded in Los Angeles with producer Ted Hutt (Gaslight Anthem, Lucero, Old Crow Medicine Show), the well-crafted songs on Wishbone live up to the expectations put upon a young man theWall Street Journal touted as a “promising talent” with “much more to say,” after the release of his Liam Watson produced debut album A Winter Tale. That album won Long praise for his “sturdy but graceful” tunes in the Los Angeles Times, while Entertainment Weekly wrote that “his old-before-his-time romanticism and strong rasp are real draws.” Throughout Wishbone Long displays his deft control of melody and tone, well-practiced over many years of prolific songwriting.
