Bobby Long has built a dedicated fan base around his hauntingly poetic lyrics and catchy melodies. A prolific songwriter who has been compared to his own heroes - Elliott Smith, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan - Long’s vision for Ode To Thinking was honed in a live setting, where each song found its place on the album after being perfected on stage. After first gaining international attention for a song of his included in the immensely popular Twilight series, Long was able to return to the basics with Ode To Thinking: a guitar, sturdy songs, and his singularly plaintive voice.
