By Michael Rodriguez
OurVinyl.com Posted January 21, 2012 Harmonica and acoustic guitar on this Saturday feel about right. Bobby Long got his start playing open mic nights in London during his time at Metropolitan University where he studied music and film.
His style has been attributed to early Bob Dylan due to his strong lyrics and sound. There’s much more to be expected from this young musician as he’s early in his career so give a listen and keep an open eye. Enjoy today’s Song of the Day.

The Bottletree Cafe Interview Part 2Let’s wander waaayyyy back in time to 2011, when we found Bobby in a vintage silver airstream trailer located at The Bottletree Cafe in Birmingham, Alabama. When we first joined Bobby there we questioned if we had hit a vortex that sent us back in time to the seventies, when bad tapestry and beautiful hippies ruled the earth. On December 6th we posted an interview that was shot at that very location, among Rubik’s Cubes and Christmas lights that barely lit the room. Today, we bring you the second portion of that interview. The first interview was all business; the second is about the man himself.
Please note that if you are in a public place, you may want headphones as the verbiage may be offensive to some. For this portion of the interview we utilized questions that were made famous by the great James Lipton on his show “Inside the Actors Studio”. You will hear the answers to those questions, as well as a few other questions, which are from the original Proust Questionnaire, the same questionnaire that Lipton adapted his questions from. These are simple questions that produce honest, often humorous, answers from your favorite musician, Bobby Long. We have also started a forum topic where you too can answer these same questions and share with the members at MusicBobbyLong. We hope enjoy the second portion of this interview as much as we have. Thank you for your continued support.

Posted at 1:30 pm CST. ABC Canberra's Discovery of the YearGenevieve Jacobs, host of 666 ABC Canberra's radio show Afternoons, looked back at the past year and named Bobby as their great discovery of the year.
"Afternoons' great discovery of the year was English singer Bobby Long, whose album A Winter Tale slipped by almost unnoticed. A Stranger Song shows Wiltshire born Long at his best - a heartfelt chronicler of quiet emotions." Genevieve and co-host Marcus reviewed A Winter Tale on their show after Bobby visited Australia in April last year. Read Genevieve's blog about the show here. Posted at 3:15 pm CST.
