The Long Ryders

The Long Ryders stand as pioneers of alternative country and the Paisley Underground, emerging from Los Angeles in 1981. Widely credited as foundational figures in the Americana movement, the group’s blend of roots-rock, country, and psychedelic influences shaped a distinctive sound that remains influential today. Their critically acclaimed discography showcases a commitment to both tradition and innovation, with albums such as “September November” released in March 2023, and the celebrated “Psychedelic Country Soul”.

The band’s enduring relevance is evident in their ongoing creative output, including the recent release of “Four Winters Away”, and anticipation around “High Noon Hymns”, an album building on their illustrious legacy. The Long Ryders' live performances are a testament to their musical vitality, and they are set to headline The Piper in Saint Leonards-on-Sea, United Kingdom, in October 2026. This concert promises a dynamic setlist reflecting decades of genre-defining material across albums and live favourites.

For fans of live music, gigs, and Americana-infused concerts, The Long Ryders continue to be a compelling force. Follow the band and stay updated on their tour dates to experience their celebrated shows and to catch news of further upcoming gigs.
