Listen to Davey Long with Last Train To Tupelo

Davey Long
Last Train To Tupelo
Out: 3rd September


Celebrating the life of Elvis Presley with a track inspired by his life-story, Last Train To Memphis by Peter Guralnick, this new track by Davey Long wants to throttle the young man into making better choices. Taking his own blues infused folk-Americana sound, there's a sonic family tree reaching back into several albums including those by Eric Clapton, J.J. Cale, Muscle Shoals, and Jason Isbell. A profound and multi-talented musician, Davey Long has worked with icons such as Celtic Woman, Edison, The Fundamentals, The Kilkennys, and Emma Langford. If that's not all, a familiar face on the festival scene, Davey Long is no stranger to big crowds of hungry music fans. Let's catch that train.


With a snap of snare and a rock n roll rhythm, a chewy blues guitar fill breaks open the vocals. Locomotive tempos and lyrics to match roll off the tongue and into the clouds of steam as the engine ploughs through the air. Flashy blues guitar launches into the middle-eight with a passionate solo before the new verse continues the story. Funky interludes fizz and crackle as the bass, drums, and organ merge in sparkling inflections of soul.
