The talented British musician Bobby Long touched down in New York City to kick off his Dangerous Summer Tour. Bobby started his tour at S.O.B's in NYC on Sunday July 26, 2009 as part of the Hope Stock Benefit. The crowd mostly compiled of women young and old was eager for the 22 year old folk/country singer to take the stage. Long's Manager Phil Taylor set up his acoustic guitar and a million hearts began to race. A few short minutes passed and Bobby took the stage. Bobby Long can captivate you with his voice like fresh honey dripping slowly over guitar strings on a warm summer's day. His lyrics are poetic in nature and leave the listener open to interpret them as they please. He is a true artist: his guitar his canvas, and his lyrics the paint. He played his heart out for the crowd and mesmerized everyone with his harmonica and guitar skills. He is a throw back to the days of true poetry in music and the sixties vibe oozes from his core. After the show he took time to meet and greet all fans, signing limited edition posters and memorabilia and taking pictures with all who were there.
The following day Long performed at Arlene's Grocery in NYC his self proclaimed favorite place and was again greeted by anxious fans. He sang new and old songs and dazzled the crowd with humor and stories of his rainy day spent in the city. I had brought a few new people to the venue as well to experience Long for the first time and they were not disappointed and can't wait for his return visit in September. Bobby is great with his fans, giving the set list away and making time to thank each and everyone for showing up and giving their support. He is a special individual whose talent is only just peaking through the clouds. His is a star that is fast on the rise and I cannot think of another person that deserves it more. He possesses a strong stage presence as well as maintaining a true appreciation for the people who adore his music. If you haven't done so already you must check out his myspace page at
