“The outlaw songsmith … employs a …renegade-Anglo touch to make Americana great again… but he’s less world-weary , more foot down hard with raw whisky energy.

 Quotes from the band

“We ain’t pretty, we ain’t young, but we’ve gone deep and we’ve got something to say”
Steve Bonham

"Acoustic Music shouldn’t be all sweetness and light it can be angry, potent and yes – damned heavy" !
Kev Moore

​“We didn’t see much point in writing songs that sounded  like anyone else, as better people than us had already written them!”   Chris 'The Bishop' Lydon

Renegade Americana, Anglo-American Roots. It’s hard to pin down the compelling, distinctive high energy music of Steve Bonham and The Long Road. It’s a swampy brew of styles mixed from both sides of the ocean, characterised by sharp lyrics, great melodies and the fab sound of acoustic instruments being played with passion and purpose. It’s a kind of music that appeals to the renegade and outlaw in us all.
"evokes thoughts of Stephen King's The Dark Tower saga, deep and deliciously dark. Repeating rhythms layer the sound beautifully allowing Steve's distinctive vocals to shine and John Humphreys resonator guitar adds that perfect touch of Country."

​Ian Cripps, FATEA
"Steve earns the title of ‘Songsmith’. He has a feel for melody and mood, and a knack of matching or contrasting words with the music... a mixture of ideas and styles that any aspiring songwriter should hear."

​Rock 'n' Reel Magazine
"...actually something of Ray Davies here too, via a jollied up, rhythmic and rocking Fairports."
​
​Bugbear Promotion
"Very original songs and great arrangements; and some wild Tuba playing!"
​
​Dave Pegg, Fairport Convention
​
"The Girl With The Rattlesnake Heart? It bites!"
