Bobby Long Tour news

Bobby Long will be back in America this week to play CMJ music industry festival in NYC. This show will be the first gig on the second leg of The Dangerous Summer / Fall Tour that Bobby Long embarked upon on the 24th July. The tour has taken in  the USA, Canada, France, Germany, Spain and the UK and is now set to continue with a further 38 US shows before ending at the Mercury Lounge in NYC on the 19th December.

Bobby Long’s European dates, which have taken place over the last month, have been very successful many shows sold out in just a few days, prompting Long’s manager Phil Taylor to book a more extensive European tour to include the UK, France, Germany, Holland, Switzerland and Austria. These new European dates are set for mid January 2010, and will be announced officially in the next week.

Says Taylor, “We were holding off booking a longer European tour in January, as we have been waiting for confirmation of dates in Australia, New Zealand and Japan for that period. Unfortunately these dates were not confirmed in time for our plans, so we have decided that Bobby Long will tour Europe again in January and February before heading back to America for SXSW and another major American and Canadian tour from late March to August.” “Bobby and I were really looking forward to him playing for the many Australian fans who email us, but I am sorry to say we will have to wait a little longer before getting over there.”

Bobby has been in the studio this week with Liam Watson at Toe Rag Studios in east London. Early rough mixes are sounding very strong and Bobby has clearly gelled with his band. So far five tracks are complete and ready to be mixed.

Tickets for The Dangerous Summer / Fall Tour are selling well in all territories in the US and once again most shows are expected to sell out. Several new shows were added last week and can be seen on Bobby’s myspace at www.myspace.com/musicbobbylong

I am very excited for this tour.  Any new tracks he is working on I am sure will be amazing and worth any wait.

March to August... Can I possibly wait that long???  I knew he would have to wait for warmer weather before coming back up to Canada.  Don't worry Bobby, we could get you a nice warm coat!
